The -DCYGWIN came from the ./configure stage to the CPPFLAGS variables in
the
Makefile. So I used that because I thought it would be the intended
abstraction
for it. __CYGWIN__ (and __CYGWIN32__) are normally defined by gcc's spec
file
on cygwin. In my eyes __CYGWIN__ can be used identical to the CYGWIN
abstraction.
The __CYGWIN__ variant would have the slight benefit that it would also
work if
the abstracted CYGWIN define would fade away...
