This isn't a Cygwin bug, but a bug in LLVM.

How on earth can anybody expect that a define _GLIBCXX_HAVE_FENV_H is
set on a system which doesn't even *use* glibc?

The right thing to do for LLVM would be to add a autoconf test to
check for fenv.h and then use HAVE_FENV_H instead of realying on a
system-dependent define in one of the compiler headers.
