Thank you!  It makes sense.  Upon further reading it looks like
chrony's docs say it does not run on/support Windows.

That is not the same as not supporting Cygwin.

Taken from chrony's FAQ:

"7.1. Does chrony support Windows?

No. The chronyc program (the command-line client used for configuring chronyd while it is running) has been successfully built and run under Cygwin in the past. chronyd is not portable, because part of it is very system-dependent. It needs adapting to work with Windows' equivalent of the adjtimex() call, and it needs to be made to work as a service."

Running as a service is not a problem in Cygwin, there's a helper program for that.

I'm not sure about the support for adjtimex()... Its not in any header so I guess its not supported. There is an adjtime() in sys/time.h, but that is not the same.
