Failing to build JavaFX

[Knee Snap]

I am running from cygwin (not WSL) as my screenshot shows. I'll try --debug.
And yes, I have Visual Studio setup with the C++ package referenced as
required.

I do not believe there is an issue with the Visual Studio usage as it is
able to successfully compile a bunch of C++ source files prior to the
failing step.
