Hi, I have not tried your solution yet, but if you don't get any feedback just add your solution to the wiki as is. You can add a note that it may be incomplete because your cygwin installation was already mature. Others can improve it afterwards.
It doesn't have to be perfect from the beginning. A wiki is meant to be edited and improved and I prefer to have an almost solution in there over the current statement that there is no way to do this at all.
