I'm not a fan of Windows or Cygwin, but if supporting that platform
means more security awareness and use of metasploit as a standard
framework, then by all means keep it around.
I don't know if anyone has explored the option of cross-compiling the
relevant libraries with MinGW. I've got it to work on a few packages,
with relatively little pain, but other packages are very painful. Just
depends on how the code is written. Perhaps it would make packaging
binaries easier...?
