Sure yes. It has been inside Cygwin snapshots since end of last December. It was
introduced in newlib near the 22nd October 2012. I suppose that other occurrences of
_XOPEN_SOURCE have to be checked.

% cygcheck -f /usr/include/string.h
cygwin-1.7.17-1
% uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-5.1 jupiter 1.7.18s(0.263/5/3) 20130111 15:37:20 i686 Cygwin

See http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2011-02/msg00534.html (and many others).
