Unfortunately, this is a known issue with the Cygwin Tcl/Tk binary
package. Please search the Cygwin archives for the details, if
interested.

Anyway, the following excerpt from my Cygwin Python README:

2. The _tkinter extension module will only be built if the X11
header files from the tcltk-20021218-1 source archive have been
copied to /usr/include:

$ mkdir -p /usr/include/X11
$ tar -xjf tcltk-20021218-1-src.tar.bz2
$ cp tcltk-20021218-1/tk/xlib/X11/*.h /usr/include/X11

details a better recipe for getting the required headers. It also
explains why I didn't have this problem -- I already had these files
installed for Python.
