Cygwin + Grub possible?

OK, hi.
 
I just got the latest GRUB from CVS and just installed the full latest CYGWIN on my Win2k machine.
I tried compiling GRUB under CYGWIN, but it unfortunately does not work.
The configure chokes on the following line:
   
    checking if start is defined by the compiler... no
    checking if _start is defined by the compiler... no
    configure: error: Neither start nor _start is defined
 
I do not quite understand how it can be that neither start nor _start is defined? How can anything
link successfully than? I would you use DJGPP to build it, but then I can't use configure and manual
creation of make files for some code that you are unfamiliar with is a pain.
 
Is it at all possible to compile GRUB on a Windows machine?
Or should I just quit and emulate linux in Bochs...?
