Great.

Correct, Cygwin did not change. However PCRE was upgraded to 7.9, in 
addition to the original OpenSSL update. I have already confirmed that 
the lasted PCRE also works, which means that now Box Backup can safely 
rely on the latest libraries for its dependencies. Perhaps it is time to 
update the Wiki build instructions?

OK, this only means that you are building Box Backup in a subdirectory 
of whatever directory you were in when you typed "svn co 
https://www.boxbackup.org/svn/box/trunk/ boxbackup"...

Nothing to worry about, as long as you remember where to look for the 
resulting boxbackup folder and its content, such as the binaries.

So you did find the binaries.

;) There are apparently a few tickets missing for the next milestone 
[1], perhaps Chris can share with us how he sees the future release 
schedule?
