If you're targetting Cygwin, the correct target is i686-pc-cygwin.
There are other systems that are not Cygwin but are PE (Interix,
MinGW, WinCE), but may not be supported by as many modules (such as
gdb) as Cygwin itself is.  The reason is that, perhaps, Cygwin
provides additional APIs that are needed for the gdb (or whatever)
port.
