Hello,
When i try to compile coreutils-9.3 under cygwin-3.4.8 i get the following
error messages (see below).
There seems to be a kind of loop in the hierarchy of #includes.
Moreover, with cygwin-3.4.7, this is ok. Also, if under cygwin-3.4.8 i remove
the 2 #includes from /usr/include/sys/cpuset.h,
this is also ok.

Usually it's easily fixable. There's typically no loop because
of the guards, e.g.
#ifndef _SYS_CPUSET_H_
#define _SYS_CPUSET_H_
but some guarding can have side effects.
However, somebody needs to come up *at least* with a simple reproducer.
It can be reproduced by running 'cygport coreutils.cygport build' in a prep'd
coreutils source directory e.g. /usr/src/coreutils-9.0-1.src . Excerpt follows:
make[3]: Entering directory
'/usr/src/coreutils-9.0-1.src/coreutils-9.0-1.x86_64/build'

I've trimmed the errors back to just those from compiling lib/exclude.c. This is
new breakage in 3.4.8 (per Denis) and corresponds to the new in 3.4.8 #includes
added to /usr/include/sys/cpuset.h.
I guess it's the include search order that has ./lib/stdlib.h being included from
sys/cpuset.h rather than the "<stdlib.h>" coded there.
I'm not familiar with building coreutils. But it seems something about the new
#includes added to sys/cpuset.h have upset coreutils' build magic. My offer to
replace the two problematic #includes with two explicit extern statements still
stands ;-).
