you need to check config.log for related errors to figure out whats missing. i dont think you need to run start-msvc71.bat or any of those, just run vcvars32.bat [dont remember where it lives, do find] and then do your standard configure/gmake from Cygwin shell. make sure you clean up config.cache and status and such so it doesnt try to fetch something you dont want [ eg from your GNU attempts etc ].
