Yes, replacing the git-compat-util.h hunk above with:

    diff --git a/git-compat-util.h b/git-compat-util.h
    index e5a4b74..a38ae8d 100644

     #define WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN  /* stops windows.h including winsock.h */

will also compile on cygwin 1.5.x

Hmm ... I remember being *very* nervous of commit 435bdf8c ("Make
usage of windows.h lean and mean", 16-09-2009) exactly because it
makes the code (on cygwin) much more fragile with respect to header
include order. ;-)

As I have mentioned here before, the claim that "WIN32 is not defined
on cygwin" is simply nonsense - it depends on if/when certain header
files are included. For example, *as soon as* you include <windows.h>
(and, I suspect, many other win32 headers) then "defined(WIN32)"
is true.

Note that commit 380a4d92 ("Update cygwin.c for new mingw-64 win32 api
headers", 11-11-2012) swaps the include order for the win32.h and
git-compat-util.h header files. [I don't know the details, Mark didn't
elaborate, but it is clearly an include order problem on cygwin 1.7.x :-D ]
This causes compilation errors on cygwin 1.5.x, exactly because win32.h
includes <windows.h>, which defines WIN32, which then leads to
git-compat-util.h including <winsock2.h>.

Hmm, except when you want it defined on cygwin, of course ... ;-)

No problem.

I've included the updated patch below, just for completeness.
