 This patch was originally #16152, but was mistakenly removed in #20927.
 This patch is still needed to build PPL in Cygwin (the patch just needed
 to updated slightly for PPL 1.2).

 A better patch would be to modify the autoconf files to not set
 `PPL_CXX_SUPPORTS_ATTRIBUTE_WEAK` in the first place on Cygwin64--as it is
 using `__attribute__((weak))` will compile fine, but fails to work
 properly at link time.  Not sure whether it's worth it though.
