STR-4: Verify Microsoft Windows + Cygwin support in buildfarm

Issue Log
STR-4, martin:
The build at Cygwin has been disabled for time reasons, and the check already fails now. Must be enabled again. However, we’ll have to remove other tasks. Maybe Cygwin can be added to the Nix buildfarm?
STR-4, martin:
The package can still not be added to the buildfarm: building at Cygwin really takes for too long. We’ll need to check the package by hand now and then.
STR-4, martin:
Use Nix buildfarm.
STR-4, martin:
If the Nix buildfarm supports Cygwin, then we’ll start checking Windows support immediately. Until then, there is nothing we can do.
STR-4, martin:
We have a cygwin machine now, and msys/mingw support is on the way.
STR-4, martin:
Build failed due to a hanging process, most likely because of a graphical message box popup. Need to debug this on Microsoft Windows itself, so reopening the issue …
STR-4, martin:
Due to the unreliable buildfarm machine this will still not be possible for 0.17. We’re currently checking Cygwin support by hand.
