I have the exact same problem. I'm trying to install my Pylons
application under Cygwin on a new computer (I already have 4
functionnal Cygwin installation) and I get the same SimpleCookie
error.

I tried creating my virtual environment on a different computer and it
didn't work.

I tried editing Authkit cookie.py to explicitely import Python's
cookie and it didn't work either

Any ideas?
