Cygwin is based on Newlib, which is based on numerous sources of BSD origin.
Cygwin strives for certain Linux compatibilities; the project's motto, right under the title on the cygwin.com page, is "Get that Linux feeling - on Windows".
The userland in Cygwin is based on GNU Coreutils, and such.
MinC is going for a BSD userland; its motto could be "Get that BSD feeling - on Windows".
