I wouldn't worry about that warning. Either configure without --with-gcc-warnings or build with 'make WERROR_CFLAGS='.

Sounds like your Cygwin configuration is busted somehow. Look in config.log and see why 'configure' decided that getopt didn't work on your platform.
Aren't these tests on $cross_compiling contradictory in configure ? if test $cross_compiling = no; then if test "$cross_compiling" = yes; then : { { $as_echo "$as_me:${as_lineno-$LINENO}: error: in \`$ac_pwd':" >&5 $as_echo "$as_me: error: in \`$ac_pwd':" >&2;} as_fn_error $? "cannot run test program while cross compiling See \`config.log' for more details" "$LINENO" 5; } else cat confdefs.h - <<_ACEOF >conftest.$ac_ext
I don't see any contradiction.
