Hello-
The most current nsclick patches are included with the click distribution. The
nsclick patches at Colorado are old and unmaintained at this point. I believe
the directions here:
http://www.read.cs.ucla.edu/click/nsclick
are what you want to use.
That being said, if your're stuck using the older versions of ns-2 and the ns-2
nsclick patches there's still a reasonable chance that things will work, but I
can imagine that a bit of tweaking might be required. As a start, have you been
able to build regular userland Click without nsclick enabled? I noticed that
you're building on cygwin -- that can sometimes complicate building *nix apps in
general.
