You might have to change the view in the cygwin setup (press "view"), 
and then you should see autoconf, etc., if not, choose another mirror.
You also need to install several other tools and libs.
Try to run ./configure in your gtk-source dir on cygwin, you might get 
some helpfull messages on what is missing. Try this with a relase 
version of GTK# (e.g. 0.6) first.
(you may need to run "make distclean" after that, before you compile it 
for win32)

It is not more difficult than compiling with (n)make under windows... ;)
The problem here is, you need to setup a linux like environment for 
Windows first. (and of course, like on Windows, set the correct path 
values).
