Ok. It took a loooooonnnnnnnnngggggggg time--*TWICE*, but I finally got 
a working Cygwin & Perl. And Cygwin is very slow on my system, as in it 
took nearly an hour to run './Build test', so please have patience.

I've hacked the attached file which gets nearly everything working.

NOTE: This is a hack module, the final patch I submit will not be 
anything like this; It is just easier to break it out into a separate 
file to see what changes need to be made.

There is one problem left that has me kinda confused because I didn't 
see any signs of it in the log posted. If some other Cygwin users would 
place the attached file in their 
<module-build-source>/lib/Module/Build/Platform/ directory, perform the 
build incantation, and post the results I would appreciate it as I'm 
suspicious that it might have something to do with my configuration.

The tests that are failing are runthrough.t #22 and xs.t #8. Both are 
tests of PPMMaker. Please let me know if you get a different result.

Thanks,
Randy.
