1. By default, Cygwin installs only a minimum of packages excluding most of
the development stuff. Check that all these including the OpenGL package are
installed. (Unfortunately I don't have a complete list at hand.) I doin't
have the very latest version, but in my case Glut is included (chek for
glut.h under /usr/include/GL).

2. Do not install any X packages as X comes with its own OpenGL which
interferes with FlightGear stuff.

Otherwise Cygwin works very fine for me.
