I just encountered this error in python 3.1.3 on cygwin 1.7.
I used the same fix as jbinder.

Old Modules/main.c (line 13):

  #if defined(MS_WINDOWS) || defined(__CYGWIN__)
  #include <windows.h>
  #ifdef HAVE_FCNTL_H
  #include <fcntl.h>
  #define PATH_MAX MAXPATHLEN
  #endif
  #endif

I guess now cygwin is defining PATH_MAX, one possible fix with ifndef:

  #if defined(MS_WINDOWS) || defined(__CYGWIN__)
  #include <windows.h>
  #ifdef HAVE_FCNTL_H
  #include <fcntl.h>
  #ifndef
  #define PATH_MAX MAXPATHLEN
  #endif
  #endif
  #endif

This compiled and worked for me and it appears jbinder as well.
