Qt4 is already in the distro:

http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree-announce/2009-12/msg00003.html

A number of patches are necessary, and these are included in the source 
package or from Ports SVN:

http://cygwin-ports.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/cygwin-ports/ports/trunk/kde/qt4/

Looks like you're trying to build a Win32 version of Qt4; the Cygwin Qt4 
package is *NIX/X11 based.

Are you trying to build for cygwin 1.5?  There were a number of issues 
with the integer types that are now fixed in 1.7.
