Just a FYI, but Berkeley DB 3.2.9 does build OOTB under Cygwin.  From
the Berkeley DB 3.2.9 Change Log:

    http://www.sleepycat.com/update/3.2.9/if.3.2.9.html

we have:

    Berkeley DB now works with the Cygwin tools. You need at least DLL
    version 1.1.4. Configure and build as you would on a Unix system. Only
    static library builds are supported, no shared library support is
    included. [#2913]

I also verified this empirically.

Now, if I could just get rpm 4.0.2 to build with it.  Sigh...
