Rather low hanging fruit this one.

Configure picks up the osname of a cygwin system as 'thread' which
isn't very helpful (see the smoke screen). This patch does something
similar to other platforms and explicitly sets the osname.

If this gets applied it would be nice to remove the i386-thread
section from smoke.

Cheers,

Nick
