I'm obtaining the source via setup-x86_64.exe, not git clone.  Then going to the 
download directory under /usr/src and doing 'cygport cygwin.cygport prep'.  Then 
setting up /oss tree like the FAQ suggests, with /oss/src symlinked to the right 
level of the download tree.  cd to /oss/build, configure and make like the FAQ 
demonstrates.

I'll try it with a git clone and report back.
Thanks,

..mark
