windows 10, cygwin, and compiling vim

Hello:

I've been working on getting a vim compiled under windows10+cygwin.
Hasn't worked too well yet.  Anybody out there have some ideas on how to
compile a runnable vim under windows10+cygwin?

* configure --with-features=huge
  That seems to work fine

* cd src; make  (note that this is done under cygwin, so its cygwin's
make and cygwin's gcc)
  I got about 20 warnings: all saying something like "visibility
attribute not supported in this configuration: ignored
  This warning affects pen.c, termscreen.c, unicode.c, state.c, vterm.c

  As a complete example of such a warning:
  libvterm/src/pen.h: In function 'vterm_state_newpen':
  libvterm/src/pen.c:164:1: warning: visibility attribute not supported
in this configuration; ignored [-Wattributes]

* otherwise, the compile completes without other warnings.  When I try
to run it: nothing apparently happens.

I'd like to get a cygwin-based vim compiled and running; I'll just go
ahead and use the gvim from www.vim.org; I need both to insure that
netrw is working properly under Windows.

Thank you,
Chip Campbell
