It wasn't us doing the Cygwin port - AFAICT Cygwin still isn't stable enough. But we're
currently working with Microsoft to find a way again to use the Microsoft toolchain in
some POSIX environment as replacement for SFU/SUA, which indeed has been finally thrown
away with Windows Server 2012r2 (it has been unstable since Windows Server 2008 anyway).
