It's a pity, that nobody else using cygwin did report whether she had
the same problem, or not.

I believe tramp.el was found. The lines "Loading subst-*..." are an
indication for this, because they are related to tramp.el's "coding:
utf-8;" cookie. tramp-fish.el hasn't such a cookie.

Could you, please, remove the first line of tramp.el, and rerun your build?
