Any existing routine for CPU-id on Cygwin?

Hello, I was just wondering if there is any existing code that's perhaps part of the Cygwin "code base" or else known to some readers, that will allow querying of the CPU type? I'd like to have a pretty simple way to get this. One application would be an enhanced "configure" for zlib-1.1.3 whi
