[AWS] Trying to build on Windows

PERL installs fine on Cygwin (Cygwin setup program is wonderful).

But then OpenSSL does not install via config make on Cygwin. (Config
works, but make does not.)

So installed OpenSSL via the installer executable. It complained about
a Microsoft C++ distributable missing but seemed to install ok. It put
all sorts of SSL libs in C:\OpenSSL-Win32.

Now (re)installing AWS for SSL fails:

$ make setup build

/*
I feel stupid as hell.
It's three days now I am trying to build AWS programs with SLL on Windows.
This can't be normal.
It's career change time for me...
