Build and run ok on CYGWIN_NT-6.3 3.1.0s(0.338/5/3) 2019-06-05 i686.

Warnings (some may be cygwin related):

*** Warning: Trying to link with static lib archive /usr/lib/libiconv.dll.a.
*** I have the capability to make that library automatically link in when
*** you link to this library.  But I can only do this if you have a

more like the following:
warning: "__linux__" is not defined, evaluates to 0 [-Wundef]
 #if __linux__ && (__GLIBC__ || __UCLIBC__)
----------------
mountlist.c: In function 'me_remote':
mountlist.c:245:9: warning: switch missing default case [-Wswitch-default]
         switch (GetDriveType (drive))
         ^~~~~~

sfs.c:281:10: warning: declaration of 'sfs_info' shadows a global

          ^~~~~~~~
sfs.c:118:3: note: shadowed declaration is here
 } sfs_info[MAXFS];
   ^~~~~~~~

   ^~~~~~~~

And finally, I'm not knowledgeable enough to know about blocker
regressions. If I can do something to provoke things, please tell
me.

Otherwise I'm looking forward to the final release. (I'm a long-time
[1998] and hardcore user of mc [linux]. So I'd like to thank all of you 
a lot
for your work.)
