I can confirm that:
On Cygwin you need to specify -DENABLE_DYNDRIVERS:BOOL=OFF

The individual shared objects are created, but at some point libtool 
comes up
with the message that it can not find the driver (in my case that was 
gd.so).
I have no idea why that would be.

I did notice that the installation notes for Cygwin refer to the autotools
build system only. We should update them (well, I volunteer for that).
