My guess is that your installation of Cygwin is missing the component
that provides some of the standard C header files.  <sys/times.h> is
part of the POSIX standard (4.5.2), and is normally supported by Cygwin.

Check (using Cygwin's setup.exe) that you have at least these packages
from the Devel category:

    gcc-mingw-core
    glib-devel

There may be others that are required also.
