You're mixing up two things here. You can build win32/console apps either
with cygwin *or* without.

Nope, you didn't ask about Red Hat's popt library, you asked specifically
about the cygwin version:

Now, "port" means the specialised version of a program/library for a
particular target; the Cygwin port of popt works only for cygwin, the Linux
port works only on Linux, .... etc. If you want one to work with
-mno-cygwin, you'll need either a MinGW port of libpopt, or a native win32
version.
Or you may be able to just work by including the libpopt source code
straight into your app.
