No, native mysql is the only stable server. We all use the native mysql
server builts (besides gerrit maybe), only postgresql is used under cygwin.
http://anfaenger.de/cygwin-1.5/mysql/ has the binaries.
The clients should be able to compile for cygwin with no problems
(Gerrit does this usually, aee url above, esp. for mysql_config), but
they are not in setup.

I don't put AS-Perl in /usr/local/bin, I have it in C:/Perl/bin
and use it only occasionally. Such as for special Win32 CGI's or PPM stuff.
This is then done with special handlers, or the she-bang line at the top
of the script.
You can easily put "C:/Perl/bin" to the front of your PATH in scripts
where you need AS-Perl.
