While there was once a version of lam-mpi set up to build under cygwin, 
AFAIK it has suffered bit rot and would present a struggle.  You could 
use native Windows mpich builds, recognizing that they don't use cygwin 
.dll and are not supported under cygwin, even though cygwin is valuable 
as a more capable command line environment.  Note that Argonne Windows 
mpich includes 32- and 64-bit Windows versions, which are much the same 
as those which are embedded in the Windows CCS environment, and can be 
run together with cygwin.  Even if you should be ingenious enough to 
link against Argonne mpich with a cygwin compiler and -mno-cygwin, that 
takes it outside the range of topics which this mail list supports.
