I'm aware this question has been asked before (I googled), but found no
satisfactory answer. I've just compiled a Unix library (to *.a) in Cygwin
and I would like to convert it into a .lib file that I can link with the
Visual Studio toolchain.

Have you tried to rename it?

I'm aware of that option, but I'm also aware that ABI incompatibilities between gcc and Windows(?) mean that is not the always the right approach.
