Remember that _WIN32 can be defined, even on __CYGWIN__, if <windows.h> is
#included -- so _WIN32 is not, in general, a reliable indicator of "native
win32"-ness.  (Conversely, if you HAVEN'T included <windows.h>, then on cygwin
_WIN32 is not defined -- which could be a problem if you really DO want to use a
native win32 api from cygwin, but the code is using _WIN32 to determine whether
to do so.  'Course, if you wanted to use a native win32 api, you really should
have included <windows.h> to get the API's declaration, but that's another
story).
