I see from a year back that the core team do not have time to check 
installation on all possible setups, specifically cygwin and myss2, and 
that for Windows testing they maybe look to WSL. My main work has used 
Cygwin fo rmany years and having WSL activated risks confusion and conflict 
for me, so I do not see it as a good option - and even more so if I wanted 
to include emscripten stuff in my main project.
When I try a fresh install on cygwin (or mysys2) I get a failure 

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./emsdk.py", line 3055, in <module>
    sys.exit(main())
  File "./emsdk.py", line 2799, in main
    load_sdk_manifest()
  File "./emsdk.py", line 2338, in load_sdk_manifest
    add_sdk(sdk)
  File "./emsdk.py", line 1972, in add_sdk
    raise Exception('Duplicate sdk ' + str(sdk) + '! Existing:\n{' + ', 
'.join("%s: %s" % item for item in vars(find_sdk(str(sdk))).items()) + '}, 
New:\n{' + ', '.join("%s: %s" % item for item in vars(sdk).items()) + '}')
Exception: Duplicate sdk sdk-upstream-master-64bit! Existing:
{version: upstream-master, bitness: 64, uses: ['llvm-git-master-64bit', 
'node-12.18.1-64bit', 'python-3.7.4-pywin32-64bit', 
'emscripten-master-64bit', 'binaryen-master-64bit'], os: win, id: sdk, 
name: sdk-upstream-master-64bit, is_old: False, is_sdk: True}, New:
{version: upstream-master, bitness: 64, uses: ['llvm-git-master-64bit', 
'node-12.18.1-64bit', 'emscripten-master-64bit', 'binaryen-master-64bit'], 
os: linux, id: sdk, name: sdk-upstream-master-64bit, is_old: False, is_sdk: 
True}

which looks as if the script is confused as between Windows and Linux (and 
we can all se that that is reasonable!).

So my questions
Is there experience or expectation that if I get past installation that 
emscripten will work under cygwin?

If not then I should avoid wating my time. But if this ia liable to be 
fairly shallow I can investigate further and hope to report back with any 
patch or fix I find. So either is there somebody with a solution already or 
will following up on this be a good use of my time or a rabbit-hole of 
unlimited depth?
