Hi ralf! thank you very much, this seems to be the problem. In the meanwhile I was able to compile it by adjusting some files after running configure. I will create a new mountpoint with binmode set, that might be easier to maintain in the future.
Many thanks for your help!

That looks like you have binmode set to off, or some other exotic Cygwin
option set.  Try enabling binmode (or better, try this on a new mount
point with binmode set, so you don't bork you other existing data).

Hope that helps.

Cheers,
Ralf
