You are right. I have just formally disabled SSPI support for non
native Windows builds.
Cygwin's windows.h pulls in windef.h, and windef.h unconditionally
defines the WIN32 and _WIN32 symbols, this breaks all libcurl building
logic on POSIX Cygwin which is based on the assumption that a POSIX
Cygwin target isn't a native Windows one.
To change the actual state it woul be necessary for someone to take
the time to locate a POSIX SSPI library and make the integration into
libcurl.
Brian, if your user needs SSPI, build him a crosscompiled MinGW target
from Cygwin. That is the supported way from Cygwin environment.
