Mingw64 release is 6.0.0 and so are Cygwin packages mingw64-*86-headers! Mingw64 6 was released at the end of last year and Cygwin packages were updated to 6 at the start of this year. Where is the discrepancy between Mingw64 and Cygwin headers? The Mingw64 master/HEAD/tip may not be identical to current Cygwin, as Cygwin tracks stable package release sources, but will sometimes cherry pick CVE fixes to patch between releases. -- Take care.
