Cygwin's ctime is Change time, not Birth time, that's why Cygwin's stat
structure comes with an additional st_birthtime as on the BSDs.
I have no idea if python has a compile time option to make st_birthtime
visible, though.
It already is:
$ python
Python 2.7.10 (default, Jun 1 2015, 18:17:45)
[GCC 4.9.2] on cygwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import os
>>> st = os.stat('python.cygport')
>>> print(st)
posix.stat_result(st_mode=33188, st_ino=281474978441936,
st_dev=3300977488, st_nlink=1, st_uid=197608, st_gid=197121,
st_size=3535, st_atime=1363164377, st_mtime=1464116088, st_ctime=1464116088)
>>> print(st.st_birthtime)
