Failure to build bundled zmq on Cygwin

[ahmadia]

Update: See #113 for a complete PyZMQ build solution on Cygwin.

It looks like configure isn't being properly run...

I'm taking a look at the zeromq stable release for cygwin to see if I can find more details.

I have never seen pyzmq build successfully on cygwin. If you want to re-run configure (it is not included in sdist), you can fetch a full libzmq and then build again with:

python setup.py fetch_libzmq

Thanks. Let's close these issues until I've had a deeper look at what's happening.
