Maybe I missed this but why are people using the native Windows ActiveState Perl with GIT+Cygwin when Cygwin has a Cygwin-ized Perl installation available?

I've been using the Cygwin Perl with GIT without any problems whatsoever. Including the open(I, "-|")... exec(@argv) code that doesn't work correctly in ActiveState and started this whole thread.
