This was a typo in xc/programs/Xserver/Imakefile.  
CVS should have it corrected.  You can edit xc/programs/Xserver/Imakefile
with VI, search for -L../../lib/getsurf and delete it.

Then from the toplevel that is xc, do make Makefiles followed by
make depend.  This will generate new Makefiles with dependencies.

Are you missing xc/lib/dps? xc/extras/pswrap?

-DX_NOT_POSIX is for MSVC compilers.  This flag cannot be used with Cygwin.
It is not cygwin.cf issue, rather cygwin1.dll at Windows98. As I said
ask Cygwin mailing list.  I cannot help you if you encounter
cygwin1.dll bug on a Win98.

I am pretty sure you are somehow using cygwin.rules from
April, 2000.  Regardles, open cygwin.rules with VI search for
-lipc and delete it.  Also in cygwin.cf delete -lipc from
#define Extralibraries.
