It fails under Cygwin64 (this is the first time I've installed this
version of Cygwin).  Here are two patches that help it along.
The first one is about making sure ARCH is set correctly:

+ARCH ?= $(shell sh $(SRCDIR)/config-arch.sh)

 DLLSINPATH = 1

And this one eliminates the following complaint from the assembler:
apply-hack.x86-64.S: Assembler messages:

With those in place, all goes well until the attempt to build cygchicken-0.dll,
which fails with:

runtime.o:runtime.c:(.text+0x24c67): undefined reference to `C_do_apply_hack'
runtime.o:runtime.c:(.text+0x24c67): relocation truncated to fit: R_X86_64_PC32

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

Since I don't know assembly language, I can't help further.
