How can I test in a /usr/bin/make Makefile whether I am running on a
32bit or 64bit Cygwin (not Windows kernel)?

Usually in a shell you use "uname -m", or with bash specifically, the $HOSTTYPE 
variable.

However in GNU make you should be able to use the internal variable $(MAKE_HOST). On my Cygwin 
installation, this gives the value "x86_64-pc-cygwin". Since I do not have any 32-bit 
Cygwin installation, I cannot tell you what the exact value is, but my guess would be 
"i386-pc-cygwin", or something like that.

Cygwin 32 (no longer supported) was i686-pc-cygwin as are Mingw cross-builds:

$ ls -1 /usr/bin/i*-gcc-[0-9]*
/usr/bin/i686-w64-mingw32-gcc-6.4.0.exe
/usr/bin/i686-w64-mingw32-gcc-7.4.0.exe
