"Windows native" generally excludes Cygwin, because Cygwin uses a
different runtime.  So maybe instead of saying "all native Windows,
including Cygwin" we should say "all native Windows configuration, and
also Cygwin"?  If you agree with that, then the rest of the text you
added and the section name should also be amended.

                                           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
You mean, "available only when debugging Cygwin programs"?
