How to use CMake with cygwin/mingw toolchain?

What is the current process to use the mingw toolchain that is
included with cygwin?

There use to be a -mno-cygwin option used with gcc.

The mingw versions have x86_64-w64-mingw32- or i686-w64-mingw32- added
to their exe names. Currently I just use these directly but I want to
use cmake.

Cygwin also includes cmake. How would I configure it to use the mingw
toolset that is included with cygwin? I also see some Qt5 *.cmake
modules included in the Qt5 libraries for mingw.

Would it be possible to include a version of cmake built for mingw?

Thanks.
