That's not workaround, that's the right way to do it.

Why not start it directly, then?
It's not cygwin-specific, both are remote access services. Using intermediate
scripts only blurring your picture, and taking more time for system to
startup.

I would understand, if you were using run-parts ~/profile.d/ kind of scripting, 
like me.
But it seems it's not the case and all you want is to start certain
application on startup. Do it!
