I have the same problem with or without -I in the command line. The thing 
is that I did the command
grep "pthread_attr_t" sys/*.h
while being in /usr/include, and it came up empty.

Furthermore, I had an older version of cygwin from a few months back which 
had the said type in the file types.h, but which caused the other 
incompatibilities I mentioned. I updated cygwin only two days ago and the 
new file types.h that was installed didn't have that type in anymore.

I noticed that this problem of missing type is inherent to the MinGW 
version of the g++ compilers, and that the newest version of cygwin seems 
to use those tools instead of their own g++.

Could you indicate perhaps a mirror site that you know has the correct 
version having the type? I will try to uninstall cygwin and install it 
again from scratch.
