Was your native Windows build of Emacs built with GnuTLS support?
See the section in nt/INSTALL about "Optional GnuTLS support", for
the details.  I understand that if you build Emacs with GnuTLS support
and install the GnuTLS binaries from the URL in that section, you will
have gnutls in the native Emacs without any need for the Cygwin gnutls
executable, and without any need to hack Emacs for SIGALRM.

If the GnuTLS configuration described in nt/INSTALL doesn't work,
please submit a bug report.  I'm quite sure several people use that
configuration successfully.

The latter.  Especially if the supported configuration already has
GnuTLS support built into it.
