Yes, definitely:

- cygwin is for 32-bit only
- cygwin is not really compatible with even a 32-bit
   JVM if you were thinking of using cygwin to run
   JNI code. The JNI system in Windows JVMs is built
   for Windows, not cygwin.  (In principle one could
   build a JVM using cygwin, but the most popular
   ones are not built that way, and in fact I don't
   know of a full-strength JVM (any really) built
   for/with cygwin.)
