I've partially reproduced it by installing cygwin from scratch
and selecting base Category and lua-5.3.6-2.
Now, I've got a failure:

failed to link /usr/lib/pkgconfig/lua.pc -> /etc/alternatives/lua.pc: No such file or directory

It seems that a cause of the failure was that a directory
  /usr/lib/pkgconfig
was not prepared at that time.

So, some of the failures pointed out might be avoidable,
by packaging empty directories into lua-5.3.6-*
  usr/lib/pkgconfig/

I'll try it.

But, this workaround will not enough in order to resolve all the failures...

Please, Andrey, describe more precisely how to reproduce.

Lem
