I would like to provide a Cygwin package for cmocka, as it is now
required for testing my fortune-mod package.
For more information see the project home pages:
https://cmocka.org
It is packaged by major Linux and BSD distros:

There is an error building the docs using doxygen, and that hangs, using
either cmake/make or cmake/ninja builds, locally and in GH CI (see
previous job 8341 - had to cancel after 3 hours), with current stable
and a local build of the latest doxygen release, and an issue has been
raised upstream.
I suspect this is a problem in cygwin.
There is (what sounds like) a similar problem when building libxcb's
documentation, in that it gets stuck somewhere in doxygen, waiting for a
load of dot.exe processes to finish even after they're all done.
I bisected that to working under 3.3.6 and failing under 3.4.0, but
there's nothing obviously related in that interval, and I haven't found
the time to bisect the commits...
For now, there is little justification to split into dll (40KB 1 file),
devel (100KB 8 files 2 dirs), doc (24KB 4 files 1 dir) packages, unless
for conformity, but can revisit if I can get docs built!
Since the DLL has a soversion number, not placing it in a separate
package seems contraindicated.
(I take the point that we're *probably* not going to be packaging
anything linked against is, but gratuitously breaking user-built
executables linked against it if the soversion ever changes seems a bit
mean... I guess maybe if we really think that's the only use-case, we
should only build it as a static library?)
