Testing for !defined(__CYGWIN__) here is meaningless. _WIN32 isn't
defined in GCC with __CYGWIN__ defined and vice versa.
I think really old Cygwin versions used to set _WIN32 by default. See for
example this thread from 1998:

I assume you're Earnie Boyd who also participated in this thread, so you
probably know better than me. My guess is that's where the ubiquitous
`defined(_WIN32) && !defined(__CYGWIN__)` idiom came from.
I'd be happy to remove all the `!defined(__CYGWIN__)` checks.
