It's defined twice in sys/signal.h, but in both cases ifdefed
out by _WIN32.  Of course there is no job control in gnu-win32,
but that should be indicated by sysconf (which in cygwin returns the
wrong value for _SC_JOB_CONTROL and is misimplemented in general;
someone asked me if I had any other reason
not to post my bugs and patches -- yes, there are too many to keep
track of, and rather than write patches I am writing my own library,
*with the POSIX standard in my hand*, something that the original
author should have done).
