There is a problem compiling neuron under cygwin:

There has been a slight change to the InterViews prototype for this function.
http://www.neuron.yale.edu/hg/neuron/iv ... d20c8c9a6e
You should pull that change (or get it as a patch and apply) and rebuild using:
make
make install
or start over using
http://www.neuron.yale.edu/ftp/neuron/v ... -17.tar.gz

There were just too many warnings printed under g++-4.6.1 which obscured real problems
and just turning off warnings was not very satisfactory.

Thanks. It was my fault.
