Some commit message here? Yeah, I know, it's just experimental for now :)

I'm actually surprised that Cygwin should implement its own
CreatePseudoConsole instead of just trying to call into conpty.dll.
If you think this is the right thing to do, ok with me.
But then, this code is basically by courtesy of the terminal code on
github. It would be prudent to add a comment preceding the code
explaining where the algorithm is coming from and copying the MIT
license. Note that attribution is part of the MIT license:

I would rename the function a bit to make clear this is only for the local
creation of the pseudo console handles. Sth like create_console_handle or
create_pconsole_hdl, perhaps.

Aren't from here on two patches folded into one? All but one hunk (the
one calling CreatePseudoConsole_new) seem to be entirely independent of
OpenConsole.
It would be nice to get a commit message explaining the changes and
source comments explaining the new code wouldn't hurt either.

Is there some macro for the count of 64 in this context, by any chance?

Do we really want a 32 bit version? Isn't there an aarch64 version?

For a start, this may be ok, but we should really try to build our own
OpenConsole package build by our own gcc or clang, IMHO.
