Many thanks for the response, @eblake:
That could be a bug in the Cygwin build of OCaml, rather than a problem
in libguestfs itself. Is it possible to focus on building from a
tarball (where the ocaml code generation was run on a different machine)
to reduce the need to run ocamlc on cygin?
Just tried it - but unfortunately, the same error occurs; here is a pastebin of the log
output of the autogen/configure and make steps:

Though, it is interesting that around the line "config.status: executing depfiles
commands", here there are four `0 [main] generator 16821 dofork: child -1 - forked
process XXXX died unexpectedly` messages, whereas in the git build I've always used to
get only one. Still, that breaks the `make` part ...
Any other suggestions? Thanks!
