[CMake] ninja under windows

[Miller, Frank]

I suspect that ninja thinks its on a posix system because you compiled 
it in cygwin. Try building it in a windows "terminal". I routinely use 
cmake and ninja on windows with the msvc toolchain and it works great 
but I use msys instead of cygwin.

Hopefully that helps you.
