do we want this as cygwin package or not? IMHO it's buggy and not worth 
the effort.
anyway for the records:

./configure --enable-pax --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man
# hack
echo "#define HAVE_ERRNO_H 1" >> config.h
make
make install DESTDIR="$PWD/.inst"
install -s -m755 .inst/usr/bin/pax.exe /usr/bin/
gzip -c .inst/usr/share/man/man1/pax.1 > /usr/share/man/man1/pax.1.gz
