I believed that pd-watchdog is existing on windows, and is called 
pd.com, they are both related with PID. I've renamed it to watchdog just 
for everytime I've asked mysself, "what is this watchdog, what is this 
pd.com?"

If you want to duplicate code, like with portaudio and portmidi, but in 
both configure.in and makefile.in let it be. I'm very far from being an 
expert, but for me it doesn't look very nice. For the moment I've a very 
light definition of a 'good' code, sometimes it's better when it is 
duplicated, sometimes we should rather make modules. In all case I 
really would like to know for sure what would be the best choice before 
writing the definitive code.

using CYGFLAG would just avoid to duplicate everything for mingw.

also when using g++, -mno-cygwin flag have to be placed differently, 
something like " -o <XXXX> -mno-cygwin" .
