As for the first few ITK compiling errors you have quoted, it looks like 
you have both win32threads and pthreads enabled -- maybe just an oversight?

I am not sure about the errors with VTK, they look similar to what 
happens if "windows.h" cannot be found (or is just not included).  How 
did you run CMake and make, from within a cygwin shell or outside?  That 
might affect the way CMake experiences the build environment and 
determines how to set preprocessor flags.


HTH,
