Not a good idea to try compiling XFree86 from CVS until you have
successfully compiled the source tarballs for Cygwin/XFree86 located at:
ftp://mirrors.rcn.net/pub/sourceware/cygwin/xfree/xc-4-src/4.0.3/

Those sources are correct except for two patches that you need to make:
1) In xc/programs/Xserver/Xext/xvmc.c, change line 16 from
	#include "X11/extensions/XvMC.h"
	to
	#include "include/extensions/XvMC.h"
2) In xc/config/cf/cygwin.cf, change line 160 (or close to it) from
	#define XVirtualFramebufferServer YES
	to
	#define XVirtualFramebufferServer NO

Build that tree... learn it... love it... patch it :)
