That guess was wrong.  The problem turns out to be that lint is defined 
in config.h.  When lint is defined, Cygwin's <sys/cdefs.h> defines 
_Noreturn to be a macro with empty expansion.  I've raised the question 
on the Cygwin list 
(https://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2016-05/msg00374.html) as to whether 
that's a bug.
