Yes, I fill that. But that's a little bit complicated: to benefit from a
"pure" windows binary, you can compile a mingw binary using cygwin tools.
But you still need to download the make tool from the mingw website.

I installed last week mingw. I am still fighting some cygwin habit while
using mingw :-)

Certainly a good thing. Do mingw things with mingw and cygwin things with
cygwin :-)
