That we don't define _WIN32 - actual we do internally but don't show it to includer - is done by intention. Actual Corinna and I decided that this behavior is for cygwin the desired. If you need to define _WIN32 then please do it within your source-file, but don't expect that it gets defined for you by some psdk-headers.
