Maybe I'm missing the point but you can also build openocd with cygwin 
using the gcc flag -mno-cygwin. You do need a finite number of cygwin 
packages such as gcc, make etc beyond the default install. I tried the 
build under msys but couldn't get past the ./bootstrap step.

The howto on this is on Sparkfun. google: build openocd on windows.
