No, POV-Ray 3.5 does not seem to compile correctly without the unix
emulation DLL from cygwin (it compiles, but the resulting binary isn't
functional). A program linked with that library requires to be under open
source licence for distribution.  You can compile POV-Ray 3.5 fairly
straight away with cygwin, but you probably won't find a compiled binary
for distribution.
