Hardware Accelerated OpenGL

I recently read a note that someone is interested in Hardware Accelerated
OpenGL with Cygwin/Xfree86.  I, too, am very interested in such a project,
but would be unable to write the necessary code to interface the windows
hardware accelerated OpenGL libs and Xfree86.  I am stuck with Windows on
one of my development machines at the moment due to some motherboard
hardware issues and am thus resigned to search for a method to accelerate
some OpenGL work I am planning on doing.  I want to stick with XF86 though
due to my desire to keep this project based in the *nix world (as my entire
project will eventually migrate to either FreeBSD or Linux).

Is there currently a hardware acceleration project for cygwin, and if so,
what is the status?

Thanks much!
