Installation problem v0.8, Cygwin on WinXP

I'm trying to build from the tar file on Cygwin using python v2.4

I used the command: python setup.py config --prefix=/usr/local

This gets several msgs of the form:

/usr/local/pkg/synopsis-0.8/Synopsis/Parsers/Cpp/ucpp/configure: line 1: 
pkg-config: command not found
/usr/local/pkg/synopsis-0.8/Synopsis/Parsers/Cpp/ucpp/configure: line 1: 
pkg-config: command not found

but it succeeds anyway.  But the compile fails in ucpp directory

g++ -I /usr/local/pkg/synopsis-0.8/Synopsis/Parsers/Cpp/ucpp 
-I/usr/local/include -I /usr/include/python2.4 -D_REENTRANT -g -O2 -c -o 
ucpp.o /usr/local/pkg/synopsis-0.8/Synopsis/Parsers/Cpp/ucpp/ucpp.cc
/usr/local/pkg/synopsis-0.8/Synopsis/Parsers/Cpp/ucpp/ucpp.cc:8:34: 
Synopsis/AST/ASTKit.hh: No such file or directory
/usr/local/pkg/synopsis-0.8/Synopsis/Parsers/Cpp/ucpp/ucpp.cc:9:35: 
Synopsis/AST/TypeKit.hh: No such file or directory
/usr/local/pkg/synopsis-0.8/Synopsis/Parsers/Cpp/ucpp/ucpp.cc:10:27: 
Support/Path.hh: No such file or directory
/usr/local/pkg/synopsis-0.8/Synopsis/Parsers/Cpp/ucpp/ucpp.cc:11:35: 
Support/ErrorHandler.hh: No such file or directory

The Synopsis and Support directories are present in the
'synopsis-0.8/src' directory, but not in the directories
mentioned in the -I options to g++.

I tried symlinking these dirs into /usr/local/include, and the compile
succeeded, but the link failed with a bunch of missing references:

g++ -shared  -o ucpp.dll mem.o hashtable.o cpp.o lexer.o assert.o 
macro.o eval.o ucpp.o -L /usr/lib/python2.4/config -lpython2.4  -lpthread
ucpp.o(.text+0x96): In function 
`_ZN8Synopsis3AST8Declared6acceptEPNS0_11TypeVisitorE':
/usr/local/include/Synopsis/AST/Declared.hh: undefined reference to 
`Synopsis::Path::normalize(std::basic_string<char, 
std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> > const&)'
ucpp.o(.text+0x108):/usr/local/include/Synopsis/AST/Declared.hh: 
undefined reference to `Synopsis::Path::strip(std::basic_string<char, 
std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> > const&)'
...etc...


Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,
