With cygwin 1.7.11-1 and latest cygwin1-20120419.dll I solved the mknod 
problem but another problem with 'utime' function of the 'tar' command appears:

Stefano AT ASUS ~/test
$ mknod ccc c 5 1

Stefano AT ASUS ~/test
$ ls -al
totale 5
drwxr-xr-x+ 1 Stefano None    0 19 apr 22.02 .
d---------+ 1 Stefano None    0 19 apr 22.01 ..
crw-rw-rw-  1 Stefano None 5, 1 19 apr 22.02 ccc

Stefano AT ASUS ~/test
$ tar cvfz ccc.tar.gz ccc
ccc

Stefano AT ASUS ~/test
$ tar xvzf  ccc.tar.gz
ccc
tar: ccc: funzione "utime" non riuscita: No such device or address
tar: Uscita con stato di fallimento in base agli errori precedenti


only if i use m option it seems to work:
Stefano AT ASUS ~/test
$ tar mxvzf  ccc.tar.gz
ccc

Stefano AT ASUS ~/test
$ ls -al
totale 6
drwxr-xr-x+ 1 Stefano None    0 19 apr 22.03 .
d---------+ 1 Stefano None    0 19 apr 22.01 ..
crw-rw-rw-  1 Stefano None 5, 1 19 apr 22.03 ccc
-rw-r--r--+ 1 Stefano None  128 19 apr 22.02 ccc.tar.gz

Stefano AT ASUS ~/test

Thank you,
    stefano
