Regarding the "native" for cygwin Context, I am currently using TeXLive for Unix-ish Platforms. So the Context In TeXLive for Unix platforms works or has been made to work on Cygwin at some step in the process by someone. How is the TexLive version of ConTeXt prepared? Using the same technique for the standalone to render it runnable on Cygwin like the TexLive version of Context, I should think. What do you think?
