Assuming the Expat header-files are in
"/cygwin/c/Program Files (x86)\Expat 2.2.0\Include", and the Expat library
is in "/cygwin/c/Program Files (x86)\Expat 2.2.0\Lib", Try this:
./configure --prefix=/cygdrive/c/temp/ud CC=/bin/gcc \
CPPFLAGS='"-I/cygwin/c/Program Files (x86)/Expat 2.2.0/Include"' \
LIBS='"-L/cygwin/c/Program Files (x86)/Expat 2.2.0/Lib" -lexpat' \
>configure.log 2>&1
You'll probably have to play around with quoting and escaping.
Alternatively, rename the directories to remove the spaces in their
pathnames.
