Sorry, the latest upstream release is 5.0 however, 4.0 and later
cannot be built in current cygwin because LLVM package is old.
This update is up to 3.1.

- Enable CUDA support.

Curiosity, how do we support CUDA on Cygwin ?

nvidia cuda toolkit is used in build stage of user programs.
Although this is not very desirable for cygwin package, I thought
that the advantage of being able to use the GPU was greater than
the disadvantage.
However, on the second thought, cuda support should be a separeted
package from the base package, and suggest installing cuda toolkit
in the install stage of of that package.
Let me consider a bit. If you have any idea, please let me know.

Please note CUDA is Nvidia proprietary closed source - I do not think we can or should touch it when OpenCL 3+ supports Nvidia devices.
Fedora does not support CUDA although others do in their non-free "sources".
