Hi Hans

it's just like David said: your installation of cygwin is probably mixed
with mingw.

Some windows binaries are available from
here:http://www.lorenzobettini.it/software/gengetopt/

but they're old.

Please tell me if you need more up-to-date versions.

However, I think you need to fix your cygwin/mingw installation in order
to use the sources generated by gengetopt itself.  I suggest you either
install cygwin or mingw or you keep them separated.

cheers
