  :-/  I carefully inspected your patch, saw that it was correctly setting up
an xfail for cygwin among a whole bunch of other xfails, and completely forgot
to check that it was going in the right place!  It reminded me that when
dealing with a patch generated without -p I should always apply it and read
the resulting file instead of just trying to inspect the patch on its own.
