At http://proc.host.sk/data/download/kdetoolkit-gen.tar.gz you can find little 
perl script (needed patch is included),  that create kdetoolkit (just 
temporary name) from qt-3.0.1 or recent qt-copy. 
(So you can use it only with kde3beta1 or kde-cvs). I can't upload full 
release since I'm very limited in bandwidth for now.
It is pre-alpha quality and not tested on Cygwin. It works for me on Linux, 
but I haven't really tested it yet.
I will be very surprised if you actually managed to get it built on Cygwin. 
It links with -ldl, I don't know if there is anything compatible on cygwin. 
You can probably hack qt to use libltdl, it supports cygwin AFAIK.
I haven't changed code much, so if original qt (3+) builds, this will 
probably too.
