OpenMPI list indicated recently that cygwin support is a work in 
progress. I recall it depending on mingw cross compilation, but I may be 
wrong. mpich2 is pre-packaged, and works in a Visual Studio framework, 
as does current OpenMPI.

This doesn't make sense, nor to I see any evidence of it.  When ifort is 
supported, it's by an mpiifort wrapper, so as to avoid confusion with 
gfortran.  This would be a cross compilation, not using cygwin 
facilities, and would not be supported specifically by anyone, as far as 
I know.
