From memory (haven't compiled MySQL on Cygwin for a while) it compiles fine, the
only problem was, and perhaps still is, with the server.  The libraries work
fine, too. I promised myself that I'd try and get it working...But so little
time and so many things to do. :-)

All it needs is a straight

  ./configure --without-server --prefix=/usr
  make; make install
