  Search for files in the cygwin distro at:

  You ought to have it in /usr/include already, it's part of the base
install:

 
http://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-cat.cgi?file=cygwin%2Fcygwin-1.5.25-14&gr
ep=locale.h

  If it's really gotten lost, you could use setup.exe to reinstall the
"cygwin" package; when you get to the package selection screen, click 'keep'
so it doesn't upgrade your entire system, select the 'full' or 'installed'
view, and click on the "new" entry for cygwin until it says "reinstall".


    cheers,
