One answers such questions with this: http://www.cygwin.com/packages/

The answer is "no package", which then calls into question how the MySQL 
maintainers came to believe they should #include that file.

MySQL has always been somewhat screwy to build on Cygwin, no doubt in 
large part because there's a perfectly good and far faster native version.

I assume you are only after the client libraries, not the DB server. 
You may find that you can make it build by skipping the parts you don't 
need.  Try something like this:

	$ ./configure --without-{debug,readline,libedit,server}
