I've looked into that python supported by cygwin, but I'm not planning
to include it, as it seems to be a rather quaint mixture of
cygwin/unix and windows.  At the core, it uses windows paths and
stuff.

I think we should wait until cygwin fixes python to use unix style
paths.  Until then, I've added your suggestion to the wiki,

Greetings,
Jan.
