OK.  The ualarm stuff is very new in cygwin - since my build of clisp - and
it wasn't quite right at first.

With:
 - cygwin-1.3.6-6, 
 - the clisp patches I posted a few weeks ago
 - the following hacks to
	- clisp-2.27/src/unix.d
	- clisp-2.27/src/unixaux.d 
I got a successful build.  Still one failure with "make check".

These patches just disables some cygwin support that is no longer required,
and removes a conflicting definition of ualarm.  Not a neat fix, but it is a
start.

Did you have a problem with ualarm?  Which version of cygwin did you
use?
Thanks,
