Seriously, I'd have a hard time believing that supporting

performance, surely. So I agree--don't do that.

That's a total non-sequitur. A piece of code will have the same impact, whether it's included directly in the upstream sources, or whether it's a cygwin local patch surrounded by #ifdef __CYGWIN__.
