Got it to work! The problem was actually in compiling lib/makepath.c. I
manually compiled it adding the -DHAVE_ERRNO_H definition argument as
below.
cd /usr/src/paxutils-2.4h/lib
gcc -DHAVE_ERRNO_H -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I.. -I. -g -O2 -c
makepath.c
Next I relinked the entire package and got a valid pax.exe which I
subsequently moved to /usr/local/bin and that was it.
cd /usr/src/paxutils-2.4h
make
mv src/pax.exe /usr/local/bin/
I don't understand the Makefile's well enough to automate this but if
anyone else wants to give it a shot, have at it. --

do we want this as cygwin package or not? IMHO it's buggy and not worth
the effort.
anyway for the records:
./configure --enable-pax --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man
# hack
echo "#define HAVE_ERRNO_H 1" >> config.h
make
make install DESTDIR="$PWD/.inst"
install -s -m755 .inst/usr/bin/pax.exe /usr/bin/
gzip -c .inst/usr/share/man/man1/pax.1 > /usr/share/man/man1/pax.1.gz
