I don't see any reason not to mention it. It's not like all the other
configurations are bug-free, or even ``clean'', for that matter ;-)

Why not? It's a valuable service to the users, I think.
Note that I'm only talking about the Windows platform, where building GDB
might be a non-trivial job. A sentence saying go find the Cygwin binary,
even if you want to debug non-Cygwin applications, could save the day for
someone.
