I suspect it's looking for struct flock in .../include/sys/fcntl.h.
However, IIRC, in cygwin the definition is located in
..../cygwin/include/cygwin/types.h. But beware - the last I looked,
flock was still buggy in cygwin.

I don't use cygwin here any more, so I can't test. However, I suspect
you're going to have to modify your config file or, at the very least,
force an include of the cygwin version of the file. You may also have
to look into the header to see if you need a #define to get the struct
included.

But why try to get PHP working in cygwin? The Windows version of PHP
works fine (as does Apache). Or, if you need Linux, load a real Linux
distro (I use Debian but Ubuntu is also good, I hear) in a virtual box
under Windows.
