For the missing uid_t, you could add this to configure.in
AC_CHECK_TYPE(mode_t, int)
then no need for ifndef around the decl of "uid".

With this function (and a test for getuid in configure.in),
(or maybe that should be "return 0"?)

#ifndef HAVE_GETUID
static int getuid() { return 1; }
#endif /* __MINGW32__ */

you could avoid the remaining ifdefs.
