 Replying to [comment:3 drkirkby]:

 OK, I've updated the spkg-install in the spkg (same location) to do the
 test on the existence of SAGE_ROOT first.

 The logic of the CYGWIN-specific test is that it runs 'patch --version'
 and exits with 1 if the output
 does not contain 'patch '; otherwise, it exits with 0.
 This test is shamelessly stolen from the bottom of spkg-install, where it
 tests for the version (I only removed the version part).
