An easier way to do this is to just include altera_avalon_pio.h, and add the compiler flags:

-I'$(SOPC_KIT_NIOS2)'/components/altera_avalon_pio/inc -I$(PREFIX)/include/cyg/hal.

That way you can continue to use the same macros you would have used in the Altera HAL or MicroC/OS-II. I thought that's what you had previously said you were doing.

Also, I just noticed that you were adding:

-I'$(SOPC_KIT_NIOS2)'/components/altera_avalon_lcd_16207/inc -I$(PREFIX)/include/cyg/hal

to get the LCD working. This should not be necessary.
