Yes.  The type is a gdbarch property (of the frame of the
current thread).  For $_siginfo, the same function linux_get_siginfo_type
handles both x86 and amd64, because the structures are mostly
equivalent, but it's just as easy to install different
gdbarch callbacks on i386-cygwin-tdep.c and amd64-windows-tdep.c.
