Hi Samuel, Coincidentally I just commented on this problem in another ticket, and then I saw this post. I'm going to see if I can get my Cygwin patchbot up and running again. But it would be helpful to have another.
Thanks for putting out the call. If anyone wants to try there are instructions for building Sage on Cygwin at https://trac.sagemath.org/wiki/Cygwin64Port (which I've recently updated with a simplified checklist of instructions; if you try it out please let me know if you run into any trouble with the instructions).
