That's not a good idea.  The MySQL native builds are going to be linked
against MSVCRT.  You can't combine MSVCRT and cygwin1.dll because they
both provide differing and incompatible C runtime libraries.

Just build a Cygwin libmysqlclient.  It's not hard.  There are 2 or 3
things you have to patch and they're all summarized by Gerrit in
postings to this list.
