"./configure --help" would tell you what options are available. I guess
that you're not used to compile stuff on Unix, which explains why you're
a bit puzzled. The most common option is --prefix=xxxx to indicate
installation prefix, another one is --disable-static if you don't want
to generate a static library.

> Huh . How would I set the -mno-cygwin option?

the simplest way to do that would be a typical Unix mantra:

  CFLAGS=-mno-cygwin ./configure  <youroptions>
  make
  make install

Don't ask me to explain what this means though. You should find
lots of information on the Internet. Look at the documentation
for what is called "Autoconf"

Hope this helps,
