sorry for coming late to this thread… hard week :)
why we are trying to compile with cygwin? 
is there a problem with the mingw distro?

I didn’t have the time to update the README, sadly. But well… following 
appveyor configuration should give you all you need to reproduce the build 
(that’s what I did last time I built an environment).
