FYI, both of these are available in Ports for i686-cygwin and *-mingw; I 
haven't got that far yet for x86_64-cygwin.  If there is interest, I 
would be willing to move any of these into the distro.

Not that everything can be cross-compiled, but I understand that those 
with 64-bit machines are going to want to use x64 as much as possible. 
How far we go with the cygwin32-* and cygwin64-* packages will depend on 
demand, but is it entirely feasible to do at some point.
