This is where this thread started!  The problem with the version of  
guile (1.8.1-3) that's offered by Cygwin has a hardcoded path that  
breaks the build.  Apparently, there's a later version (1.8.1-4)  
fetch-able via cygwin setup from http://lilypond.org/ but the cygwin  
setup craps out when downloading.  I tried building guile from the  
cygwin source but there was another dependency complaint.  So there's  
something strange going on tonight, something's going on that's not  
quite right, and I've wasted enough time with it so I'll just happily  
use the OS X port and move forward.
