In OpenSC's  build system (configure.ac),  the Cygwin-specific parts
are 10-11 years old.
"cygwin native = yes" means the old-style Mingw build ( -mno-cygwin )
to create native Win32 programs/libraries,
whereas "cygwin native = no" means generating Cygwin programs/libraries
(with CRYPTOKI_FORCE_WIN32 being forcibly - and probably incorrectly - defined).

You can get very substantial performance improvements
by not doing the right thing. - Scott Meyers, An Effective C++11/14 Sampler
So if you're looking for a completely portable, 100% standards-conformat way
to get the wrong information: this is what you want. - Scott Meyers (C++TDaWYK)
