Are you sure it is failing? If the last few lines of cmake output are -- Configuring done -- Generating done -- Build files have been written to: <a disk location> then cmake worked despite any error messages concerning missing/bad compilers. For this case you should just continue with running the "make" command afterward. Responding to your specific question, phobos and tango are D-related libraries. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D_(programming_language). So it appears from your remarks and my own searches of Cygwin packages that Cygwin does not yet support the D language. In that case, our build system should produce a cmake error message that is actually non-consequential because it is followed by a warning message that D will be disabled and a continuation of the rest of the configuration with a successful outcome as above. But if you want to quiet that error message about D, then specifically disable D beforehand by using the -DENABLE_d=OFF cmake option for an initially empty build tree. This is also a pretty good general rule; if some component of PLplot is giving trouble, look for corresponding ENABLE_* options in the CMakeCache.txt file, and turn that component off on the cmake command line as, for example, in the D case above.
