This is incorrect. It can use cygwin, but works great under mingw, (which
is really just a compiler and collection of a bunch of headers, which
generates 100% native windows binaries, with no ugly cygwin DLL runtime
aftertaste/performance degredation.
The binary GNUstep-base (Foundation) installer at GNUstep.org uses mingw.
