If you install the Windows port of the MySQL server from mysql.com, that 
will include the "mysql" command line program.  You can use that from 
the Cygwin command line.  If that's all you need, you don't need any 
special Cygwin support.

If you need to develop Cygwin programs that act as MySQL clients, see 
README-Cygwin.txt in the MySQL++ distribution for instructions on how to 
build a Cygwin version of libmysqlclient:

Those instructions are valid even if you don't use MySQL++.
