As I do not use Windows I would like to cross compile on Linux.
I cannot use Mingw as our application relies heavily on the select()
call.
So my question is: is it possible to cross compile a Cygwin binary on
Linux?
Yes it is. Packages for Fedora and RHEL/CentOS are available here:

Unfortunately the gcc for CentOS appears not to work...
/usr/bin/i686-pc-cygwin-gcc-4.9.3 -c test.c
*** buffer overflow detected ***:

That sounds like a problem we had with mingw-binutils on EL6; we never
figured out why this only happened there, but we did find a fix. I'll
try to have an update to cygwin-binutils later today.
