CYGWIN: why va_list is declared in wchar

In cygwin I stumbled on something weird (from my perspective). va_list type is declared in wchar.h. In linux and mingw it is declared elsewhere more explicit (vadefs.h for mingw for example). Can anyone point out why this choice was made ?

Thanks

stdarg.h is provided by the compiler:

$ cygcheck -l gcc-core | grep stdarg
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-cygwin/10/include/cross-stdarg.h
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-cygwin/10/include/stdarg.h

there is

typedef __gnuc_va_list va_list
