Surely there's no need for a less performant, less reliable Cygwin port
when a native Win32 one is available? If they ship it now, they
probably won't need to later when the Win32 port is finished. Cygwin is
already said to be "experimental" or non-commercial quality, AFAIR.

Not that I care though...
