No, you're trying to build glib*C* which most certainly will not work. > is it not possible to install glib on cygwin.....???? glib (the GNOME C function library), sure. There are already packages for it, just select them in setup.exe. glibc, no, never, under no circumstances will this ever work. The Cygwin library itself provides a standard C library interface (libc) so there is no need for this anyway.
