you might add cygwin-support in this version, but might forget it in
future releases. I don't know, if you are using it at all, or if it's
just a friend of yours, that tested FreeTDS on cygwin.
testing a release on cygwin-compatibility is not easy for a guy who only
has a linux-machine.
in addition, i don't know many apps, that compile under cygwin with no
modifications. cygwin is sometimes disliked.
i.e. the team behind GnuPG denied any patch which would improve
cygwin-support, but the native win32-build was _very_ old.
