I realise that, but my point was that you're on windows, so 

you can use a windows version of Python if you want to do 

windows things.  If you want to do *nix'y sort of things, then 

use the cygwin version.  You can still run the windows python 

in cygwin.

Standard extentions can't work with cygwin version of python

and visa-versa cygwin extentions can't work with windows

version of python.

Why would you need support for cygwin?  If you're running 

cygwin, then you have Windows, so you can use the 

standard extensions, can't you?  (seems to work for me).
