We can't use Cygwin builds; MinGW builds might be okayish, though. ICU ships a VS solution file (source/allinone/allinone.sln) which works fine. I don't know whether using that would be okay for Conan. Also note that we're using a patched libffi[1]; since that patch is not complete, I didn't submit it upstream, but at least this basic __vectorcall support is important for ext/ffi.
