As the corresponding files didn't change for a while, I fear, this is a problem with a new version of the cygwin tools. Does anyone have an idea how to solve this issue?

Perhaps the latest version of the tools assumes that you're building using Cygwin, and therefore assumes that there's a "unistd.h".

If so, then perhaps MinGW:

is more appropriate for people who want to build using Microsoft tools, if one of the components contains Flex and Bison - if it does, its Flex might not generate files that assume UNIX headers.
