D-Bus 1.2.4 on Cygwin: build erros

Hi,

I'm evaluating the use of D-Bus as an IPC system between a 'master' and (forked) child 
processes of a daemon running under Cygwin ('dropbear' SSH V2 to be exact).

Trying to build D-Bus on Cygwin gives the following 'results':

- the latest legacy version 1.0.3 builds w/o any erros
- using the latest release 1.2.4 gcc complains about 
  + missing 'struct addrinfo' 
  + missing AF_INET6
  (both in 'dbus-system-unix.c')

Is there any known workaround for this?

Cheers
Michael
