Most likely this is a porting problem with Cygwin, since Bison 1.75
uses a new method for generating output files.  It pipes to a
subprocess that is running m4, instead of creating a temporary file.
The details can be found in the lib/subpipe.c source code.

I can't help you with this one directly, since I don't use Cygwin.
Can you run "bison" under a debugger and see what it is doing in that
area?  If not, perhaps you can ask for help from the person who ported
to Cygwin.
