It is always "very very bad" to have cygwin dependencies sticking
around (for the special way it is loaded, cygwin1.dll does not react
well to finding multiple copies of itself in the path)... why don't
you propose to mantain an official cygwin monotone-viz package altogether?
Or, even if you do not want the work to mantain the package, why don't
you build it as a package and put on a web space with the necessary
setup.ini so that it can be installed (and automatically upgraded)
using cygwin's setup.exe?
It's always the best way to have a working cygwin installation.

I can provide all the know-how.

Ah, yes, and I *will* upgrade cygwin's official monotone package to
0.27 ASAP, should have done that already, but had a few busy evenings
at home.
