[webkit-dev] windows build error

The problem is that the build is pulling in Cygwin's pthread.h, rather  
than the Win32 version of pthreads that is required.  It's not clear  
to me exactly why that would be, but chances are that you've not  
correctly followed the instructions on how to set up the Windows build  
environment.  They start at <http://webkit.org/building/tools.html>.   
Be sure to follow them closely.
