I just d/l the tarball and followed the instructions. Worked fine.
Make sure you are in the winboard subdirectory.
Make sure you use nmake. MSVC doesn't have a make utility.
Otherwise, please give the exact error message.
I see both makefiles in the winboard subdir.

I see a security issue in winboard, and thought to try to fix it.
The only directions I see for building it are those included in the
tarball which, with some inconvenience, I've unpacked.
I don't have CYGWIN, but do have the MS tools (no-charge version).
According to the README file in the package,
====
You can build WinBoard using Microsoft Visual C with the following
commands, or by opening the project in Visual Studio and clicking the
build button.
cd winboard
nmake -f makefile.ms
===
Wheter I can use the MS compile or not, the makefile does not exist.
Where do I find the proper instructions?
I have the xboard 4.4.1 tarball.
