Reading your question again, I don't think Cygwin's minires limitation (if any) can be at play here because IIRC neither dig nor host (as actually a specialization of dig) use the resolver API but work directly at the DNS protocol level...

OTOH, they probably are looking at the nsaddr section of the resolver context structure to see what INET6 nameservers are available -- and they don't see any in there, that's why they fail?..

These are just my assumptions, though.

Are your [other] applications (that use the resolver API, with the osquery option, as suggested previously) able to resolve IPv6 addresses?

Cygwin's /usr/include/resolv.h has only IPv4 entries for nameservers:
