cygwin getline does not exist in 1.5.18, but was implemented
a few days later and is available in snapshots.  In the meantime,
if you don't want to use and compile against a snapshot, wait for
1.5.19, or use a different version of getline (for example, coreutils
5.3.0 uses the gnulib-provided replacement).
