None are required, but you might want to apply --prefix=<somewhere>
(Don't use /usr or /usr/local)

In this case, native means using the Cygwin toolchain (Not a DOS/Win
toolchain).

This is known to be broken at several places, with different problems
popping up depending on which version of Cygwin and of RTEMS you are
going to use.

Fixing this properly would not be easy, but unfortunately, apparently

However, it is fairly easy to get it "compilable" with a couple of
hacks.
