You need to read the documentation to discover that maybe you should be using the right tools. Namely MinGW and not Cygwin. Unless you've managed to compile the whole of R using cygwin of course... I hope having identical responses to mailing list messages and SO questions isn't as annoying as seeing identical questions posted to each is to everyone on the list...
