I'd like to try it again, but weren't ther some fatal problems with cygwin1.dll being in PATH? I always work either in Cygwin's bash or just have to have it in PATH, because of the build environment even being strictly Windows based (case-insensitive and alike) just have to use sane tooling in its scripts.

Do you still plan to distribute MinGW with it? It's very nice to be able to track Junio's repo, have own branches and rebuild Git from time to time. For me, at least.
