The log message needs to be updated to make this all clearer.

In any case, Cygwin does not naturally define WIN32 and should not be
grouped with MinGW and MSVC as it attempts to be a POSIX system.
Accessing hardware under Windows is a different thing though.
It seems cleaner to group Cygwin together with the WIN32 systems
for that case instead of globally.
