No. It's normal and common for software like Cygwin, which has the power to be used maliciously (as opposed to, say, a Minesweeper game or something), to have false positives on VirusTotal for a handful of vendors. I've never heard of SecureAge or Trapmine (hmm, maybe it *would* flag Minesweeper...), and I'm pretty well educated in the anti-malware space, so if it were me, I'd just ignore those false positives and pay attention to the credible AV software results (and the Community Score).
