Duh! Looking at winsup/uname.c, ``uname -a'' already returns 
CYGWIN32_{95,98,NT,UNSUPPORTED}, so it's already there for use at 
least for cygwin32. Just a matter of changing adding this to
AM_CYGWIN32 autoconf macro. I'm going to submit some win32 related
autoconf cleanups for libf2c, so I'll just add this one as well.
