Things to check:

  * make sure all headers required by System V IPC are checked
    (I don't remember what they are, but read the man page 'ipc')

  * check your mounts; it looks like you might've installed Cygwin
    to use text mounts, but are now using binary mounts instead to
    access the header files.
