How come lib/unistd.h is at all generated and used in your MinGW
build?  It isn't supposed to be, we use unistd.h that comes with
MinGW.

Please try to figure out why configure decided to generate
lib/unistd.h.  Crystal ball says you updated your MinGW64 headers not
long ago, and something there causes that.
