That would be great, but I don't know how to do it.  For now, I intend
to build Cygwin packages of the things I need.  Perhaps the packages
I'm building could be installed by the NSIS installer if Cygwin is
already present, and if not, then the NSIS installer could install the
bits of Cygwin that are necessary first.
