[Insight-developers] Error to compile ITK 3.8.0 on Cygwin platform

[Mathieu Malaterre]

Thomas,

  Forget what Luis just said. cygwin is NOT supposed to use the uuid
lib which is a linux only library. Win box have another API via the
CreateUuid function call (found in rpcrt4 lib).

  I'll have to double check if the cygwin is indeed actually using the
Win32 API.

Thanks for report,
-Mathieu
