I could create one for Windows -> Linux (Windows -> Mac still pending), =
 =

using MinGW.

What I can say: there is a --with-sysroot option in the configuration. Y=
ou  =

must care a lot about what is contained in the directory you pass as the=
  =

--with-sysroot option. There may also be troubles due to the differences=
  =

of the directory structure on Windows compared to the one of  =

Linux/UNIX-like... but I guess the latter should not be a trouble with  =

Cygwin.

I would like to advice to check twice all of what is related to sysroot =
or  =

to --includedir or --libdir, if you use these.

Cannot tell more, as this would be too much work otherwise (building a  =

cross compiler is really not a piece of cake)

Wish you to succeed

There is even better than a pragma Assert: a SPARK --# check.
