Yes, I use M-x woman for a long time with Cygwin 1.5 when native Emacs
can not correctly invoke Cygwin man...

But some day with Cygwin 1.7 I discover that M-x man properly work so
stop using M-x woman (because of initial load delay to build index of
available man pages).

A few day ago I post my config how to get this:

  http://article.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin/129043

   # This allow access to man files from Cygwin and native Emacs
   # (with cygwin-mount.el enabled), M-x man/woman...
   # Take special attention to leading colon.


MANPATH=:/cygdrive/e/home/usr/share/man:/usr/share/man:/usr/local/share/man
