That's the case of ATLAS which a priori should be without trouble on 
Cygwin64, just as it does on x86_64-w64-mingw32.
Unfortunately in this precise case, the problem seems to come from the 
configure/system detection stage (which is already highly intricated, not 
to speak of the later automatic tuning stuff) and which really obscure and 
hard to fix.
I does not even go to the configure stage.
By the way, I tried to build using mingw a few times as well but always 
failed so far, at the configure/system detection stage as well...
