Just about everyone who's built Emacs on a free Un*x has built it
under xfree.
To the best of my knowledge, though, no one has done such a thing on
Cygwin, though.

Yes. Modify Emacs' configure.in file, s/cygwin.h file (not included
in stock CVS), and (possibly) source code to support Cygwin and
Cygwin/XFree. Then, build it. Or, wait for me to finish doing the
required modifications. (Which may take a while; I don't /need/ Emacs
on Cygwin, so I probably won't have as much resources to devote to it
as you might.)
