Thanks.

Not immediately. The last time I tried was several years ago, and there was
some problem with lablgtk that kept it from working. That was many versions of
unison and lablgtk ago, so it would be worth trying again, but only if people
want it.
For myself, I use command line unison every day, but have no need for the GUI.
And there's a Windows native build GUI, which probably meets many users' needs,
although not necessarily Cygwin users. So I don't know how many people would
want the GTK GUI.
I guess the thing to do would be to ask on the cygwin list, and see what the
response is.
