Mixing cygwin and the one click installer is a bad idea from what I've seen.

Based on your compiler errors, it seems that the compiler cannot find
the needed Windows headers to compile win32ole. You should probably
remove that from the list of extensions to compile. I can't recall off
hand how this is done, but I believe it is in the README.
