I didn't think it required Cygwin - do you get an error running the 
build-support/factor.cmd script?

If that doesn't work, perhaps open an issue on GitHub so we can discuss and 
troubleshoot without cluttering the mailing list.

Building the "hard way" should work, so perhaps there is some other 
configuration issue preventing it.

Best,
John.
