Greetings!

Are there Cygwin 3.6 x86/32bit builds?
We're on Windows 10/ARM64, and as Cygwin does not support ARM64 yet
the only other option is to use the x86 (32bit) emulation to run
Cygwin 3.6 32bit. Windows 11 also has x86-64 emulation, but we are
stuck with Windows 10.

Anyone? We've hit the problem again that we would need Cygwin 3.5
32bit, as Cygwin 3.3 is bit outdated.

There can be no such build, support code for 32bit was ripped out before
Cygwin 3.4 was released.

WHY?! WHY?! ;-(((((((((((
You know how many Windows 32bit machines are out there?

As far as anyone can tell externally << 1%.
Only a tiny percentage of those using Cygwin, and only a tiny percentage, if any, maintainers or developers using systems like that. Too few to support software for, except with an expensive contract to pay for sufficient staff, hardware, and time for the effort! ;^>
