I attempted to compile current SVN of SWMR branch inside Cygwin using both the 
CYGWIN and MINGW32 versions of GCC.  MINGW32 fails, but perhaps no attempt has 
been made to support it.  It probably needs some compiler flags to tell it to 
behave like Windows when deciding which files to #include.

CYGWIN failed the "ATOMIC" test on local disk NTFS/Windows 7.  

To be useful, SWMR needs to run on file systems where this is an issue.  So my 
question is: what is the expected path forward?  Does this become a non-issue 
when journaling is integrated?  Do we need file systems locks?

Thanks.
