YES! THANK YOU!!!!!

The root cause is the use of __STDC_ISO_10646__ in glib/gunicollate.c,
which was first defined in Cygwin 1.7.8, meaning the first release of
glib2.0 built thereafter (somewhere in the 2.28.x series) was the
trigger. Unfortunately, Cygwin's wchar_t is only 16-bit, and so IIUC
isn't fully compatible with the code in glib2.0 which was intended for
32-bit wchar_t (e.g. Linux).
In the meantime, I have added a patch to glib2.0 to force usage of the
fallback code path on Cygwin, and the GIMP menu is now being formed
correctly; the necessary updates will be uploaded shortly.
Thanks for tracking this down,
