Well, that was unexpected.

Still, you could get similar problems.  ifdefs for portable sized-integer types are a particularly rich source of bugs, especially ones where #ifdef WINDOWS precedes any test that could match Cygwin, since WINDOWS is defined in Cygwin’s GCC, and as this exchange shows, Cygwin’s GCC doesn’t always behave exactly the same as Visual C++.

Any such case will compile under Cygwin.  You need to reorder such cases so a the test for WINDOWS is after one matching Cygwin, as a rule.
