The make files do differentiate between windows and posix.

And the compiler is supplied by the GCC folks for Windows as well as Linux/Unix.

I just thought I'd try it out. It's so close to working, I thought that'd be neat.

My main linux  system is scheduled for a major upgrade (CentOS 6 to 8). So i thought I'd see how well gcc for arm on windows played with Cygwin.
