Clisp 2.49 on linux can.  But that is released 7 years ago. 

The cygwin version is a 2015 snapshot and it can't dump. 
It gives an error message doesn't exist in version 2.49. 

I can't build ECL-16.1.3 on cygwin either. 

I had no problems on x86_64 Cygwin (git from 
https://gitlab.com/embeddable-common-lisp/ecl.git)
$ ecl --version
ECL 16.1.3
 

On the other hand, I don't think building on cygwin has any advantage. 
It can provide user-unfriendly hyperdoc and graphics that Linux users 
seldom use. 

Indeed :)
However, you can use it with texmacs or sage.
 

On that matter, mingw provides next to nothing: without hyperdoc and 
graphics, only clef is lefted. 

MSYS2/MingW64 looks promising.

I agree  but too  buggy actually

We  must get rid of Lisp.
Simple to say
 

So, I'm thinking about a new packaging method for Windows: 
distribute FriCAS like a Lisp application.  In FriCAS release tarball, 
there are already pre-generated Lisp files.  I think it's possible 
to package FriCAS as a Lisp program, just like Maxima. 
One step further, maybe bundle TeXmacs with FriCAS. 

That's an idea. I also think this is feasible. I did some experiments and 
eventually managed to get it working with ABCL/JVM (a longstanding dream),

There are still some ceveats which might be overcome with the help of the few 
adepts ;)
