tested on 1.6.30
./configure CFLAGS="-D_GNU_SOURCE"
make
works.
Reading
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/signal.h.html
I have the impression that the current cygwin header behaviour
is correct as siginfo_t is an extension POSIX.1-2008.
In theory "_GNU_SOURCE" should be defined by default, but I see
$ grep SOURCE *.h
pngpriv.h:#define _POSIX_SOURCE 1 /* Just the POSIX 1003.1 and C89 APIs */
$ grep SOURCE *.c
pngtest.c:#define _POSIX_SOURCE 1
that could have reduced the scope.
Regards
Marco
