Just use the inetutils provided in the Cygwin net distro.  It's 
developed from version 1.3.2 with a bunch of pretty intrusive changes.
You won't have much luck running vanilla 1.4.2 servers. 

Btw., error.h is a glibc thingy.  It's not backed by the standards. 
I'm wondering how current inetutils can just use it without checking
for it's existance in configure, anyway.
