From daemon.c:

    if ((smtp_service = getservbyname("smtp", "tcp")) == NULL)
      log_write(0, LOG_PANIC_DIE, "cannot find smtp/tcp service");


So the problem is that getservbyname is failing.
The only other place that function call appears seems to be readconf.c
which is what causes your other error message.

I don't know Cygwin, so I don't know if this function has been
implemented however assuming it hasn't, which seems to be the
case then it shouldn't be too hard to emulate it.

However, as far as I am aware there are other aspects to exim which
are likely to cause far more grief during a port. In particular
the filesystem semantics are I believe significantly different.
