Agreed.
The code is mostly only ifdef win32 vs. Posix but just a few spots are Cygwin-specific.
(and Apple specific, Solaris specific, IA64-specific etc.)

It is best to avoid Cygwin-specific code.
Use either Linux(POSIX) or Windows specific tests, and only test for Cygwin if
/absolutely/ necessary.
