cygwin compiled apps are still native win32 binaries, they are just are
using the services of the cygwin dll rather than regular win32 api calls.
btw, mingW has mSys, which also provides a set of unix style Gnu
commands, but these execute more natively, without a DLL like the cygwin
providinig faked unix API calls.
yes, mSys isn't as comprehensive as cygwin, however, its all the basic
stuff most folks need.
me, I'd rather go ahead and run my unix-ish stuff on a real unix server,
either a remote server, or something running in a vm (using virtualbox,
vmware server, etc)
