If you are trying to actually USE ipc, then cygwin does not yet 
intrinsically support it (which is why cygwin doesn't define those macros.)

However, you can install the cygIPC package: (*)
   http://www.neuro.gatech.edu/users/cwilson/cygutils/V1.1/cygipc/

Be sure and read the doco.

(*) check the cygwin-developers list; once the 'daemon merge' is 
complete, the framework for adding intrinsic IPC support for cygwin 
should be ready for contributions...
