-mno-cygwin defines WIN32 and other MinGW symbols, since Cygwin Perl was
compiled without these settings it won't work, also the perl header
win32.h is not available in the Cygwin Perl package.  Perl wants to pull
in the headers but you don't have them in the default MinGW search paths
(/usr/include/mingw & /usr/include/w32api), and even if you would copy
the headers over there it won't work.
