you just have to get db to compile with cygwin thinking its on a unix machine,
(as opposed to db realizing its on an intel box) and then link your code to the resulting libdb.a
Check the cygwin mail archives for the db code and your source code
modifications you will need. Specifically, I'm refering to the Message from
Micheal Czapski dated Thu, 27, Aug, 1998. (subject: gcc ... -U_WIN32.. may cause problems)
A correction to the code snippet listed there is:
change the line: '#include' to '#include <unistd.h>'
It's a simple fix, and it beats compiling db with msvc++ and porting the .lib
file over.
I would have included the snippet here, but do not have it online at the moment.

Well, seems to me that I'm finally gonna be able to help someone in this
list :)
I successfully built/tested/installed 2.7.3, and here is the patch, which
was not that obivous :( I also made a bug report to the author :

Hello,
I have searched the archives but didn't find any ports of the Berkeley DB
libraries to cygwin. I'm trying to build some software which requires the
libdb.a library.
I have tried to build this myself from the source code and always run into
trouble. So far, I have tried to build versions 1.86, 2.3.16, & 2.7.3 with
no luck.
Any help would be appreciated.
