There's no way that Cygwin could know to "skip" a call to WriteFile().
Cygwin doesn't interpose itself in the middle of a pipe. That would be
truly disastrous. If it somehow looked at every pipe read/write rather
than just allowing I/O to flow from one end to the other, the mailing
list would be even more filled with people complaining that Cygwin is
slow.
Maybe i can measure how much it slowed down after applying the
workaround of unworkable runtime of some non-free software.
