using cygwin to compile Lunix source on Windows

I got a bunch compilation errors on NT headers files when building Linux
sources and included the cygwin header files to the path in MS Studio .NET.
If I received the header path inclusion, then there are no errrors, but I am
left with errors on Linux POSIX specific calls. I could use some advice as to
how to using cygwin without running into these errors when compiling with
nmake in Windows XP.

Source:
Compiled under Linux g++ version 3.2

Created a project with MS Studio .NET and tyring to compile using nmake.

In preprocessor, included c:\cygwin\usr\include -> got bunch of errors in
windows header file
remove the above include -> got errors in pthread and PATH_MAX
