Perhaps... but I am not sure about policy for options in config file.
core.cygwinnativestat was proposed by Shawn, so I would like to hear
his opinion.

I am not sure that there is much common code left: stat structures are
different in MinGW and Cygwin (different fields and their types), and I
do not think having one function with a lot of #ifdef __CYGWIN__ in it
is actual improvement. But you can send a patch on top of mine and let
other people decide if it is a worty goal.
