Rob,
You need to setup your environment paths to include both the compiler's
include and libs directories as well as the targeted platform sdk, if
you're using one.
I use a custom tool chain with Cygwin/GNU Make in my build system with
support for every version of Visual Studio, including 6.
Here is an example of the required paths:
Includes:
vs6/vc98/include
vs6/vc98/mfc/include
vs6/vc98/atl/include
Libs:
vs6/vc98/lib
vs6/vc98/mfc/lib
Visual Studio 6 is compatible with the Windows platform SDK up to
"Windows Server 2003 R2 Platform SDK", but you shouldn't need it.
Your shell environment will need to be setup for both the compiler
(cl.exe) and the linker (link.exe). See here:

Dear Cygwin users,
I am trying to compile a project using VS6 compiler and makefiles
generated by imake.
When i run make from cygwin terminal it compiles everything without any problem.
However if i run make from windows terminal (c:/cygwin/bin is already in Path)
VS6 complains about various problems.
such as:
winbase.h(1011) : error C2733: second C linkage of overloaded function
'InterlockedIncrement' not allowed
mswsock.h(69) : error C2065: 'SOCKET' : undeclared identifier
winsock2.h(85) : error C2378: 'SOCKET' : redefinition; symbol cannot
be overloaded with a typedef
Why make works with cygwin terminal but not with windows terminal.
Thanks for your answers
Those errors are not coming from cygwin make. That's coming from VS6
make. Cygwin make doesn't have errors formatted that way.
With that in mind Visual Studio is a Microsoft product and not really
supported here.
