it is irrelevant as x86[_64]-unknown-cygwin-*.exe and
x86[_64]-pc-cygwin-*.exe are equivalent.

And usually it is not x86 but i686

  $ arch
i686

For a regex pattern you should include both.
I do not bore which one is built and distributed on my packages.

E.G. on octave

/usr/lib/octave/site/oct/i686-pc-cygwin
/usr/lib/octave/site/oct/x86_64-unknown-cygwin
