If this is a common/necessary thing maybe we should consider adding it
to the appropriate README file.  However, we don't seem to have a README
for cygwin in the standard GNU make install.  Is that something anyone
is interested in generating?  In general for Cygwin issues with GNU make
we've traditionally pointed people to the cygwin list.  Is there any
interest on the cygwin side for a closer support relationship?  Or is
what we have now working OK?
