That's correct. It's possible that despite the test suite failures, a 
sufficiently large subset of notmuch's functionality may be working 
sufficiently correctly to use notmuch to some extent as it is now, 
though I haven't actually tried doing so.

If there is interest, patches 1-7 could be merged for the sole reason to 
prevent them from going stale, and patch 8 could serve as a base to 
ensure the partial Cygwin support does not regress from its current 
state. Otherwise, archiving is fine too.

If there's interest I can send a v2 with the nits pointed out in IRC.
