Well a few things:

1) Version 1.8.0 is an old version, we are on 1.10.X now
2) These are warnings only, not the real error that is causing the 
problem. Can you send the whole output (or at least the failing part).
3) One simple way around this is to configure with --disable-xml

 ./configure --disable-xml

as xml support on Windows is not too good.

4) A new version of base (1.11.0) coming out within a month might have 
better support for Cygwin than 1.10 (which is probably better than 1.8)
