Comment (by jpflori):

 FLINT 3? Is that a super secret project :)
 If you mean FLINT 2.3, I personally think that it should quickly go into
 Sage, see #12173, which seems (almost?) functional to me.

 I still have some issues with Cygwin there, so the spkg I posted is not
 vanilla #12173, but rather vanilla plus a quite large rewrite of the build
 system.
 I'm aware that's a bad idea, because it won't get into FLINT 2.3, but I
 won't have the time to produce a bunch of small patches in order for only
 the Cygwin part to get included.

 As Cygwin is not required to be supported, we should surely just ship a
 vanilla FLINT 2.3 when it gets released and wait for Bill to integrate my
 changes (if he feels like) in a 2.4 or subsequent release.
