That may be the long term solution, but right now we need a working cmake, and your 2.8.2-1 isn't it. You want WIN32 defined on Cygwin, but *we* do not. As so far as the Cygwin distribution is concerned, shouldn't the views of those who make the distribution take priority? > I do not want to create a cygwin release that does not match the > upstream CMake. Unfortunately we need you to do exactly that until upstream has been fixed.
