Generally yes.  It's a porting effort.

IPC is accomplished with Cygwin through cygserver, yes.

That would require compiling with the -mno-cygwin switch.  That removes 
dependence on the Cygwin DLL.  But then you loose the Cygwin POSIX 
environment/support.


>4) is there a way to install cygserver indepentally of cygwin  independally ?


No.
