Hi 
Shouldn't this be fixed in cygwin headers?
http://www.audiocoding.com/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=448&forum=3

What the web link basically says that cygwin doesn't have 
#define __STRING #x
defined in any of the standard header files which means some source code
won't compile out of the box (FAAC library in this case). Hacking up all the
software by inserting that bit into source headers fixes the problem but I
seriously think this should be fixed in the system.
