In my experience it's possible to put some of the basic cygwin tools (ls, rm, ...) on a "virgin" win32 system, without having problems with registry settings. You will probably have problems with things like HOME. The only thing needed additionally, is copying the cygwin1.dll with it, as thats required for the tools.

Does ActivePerl plus Python plus UnxUtils contain all the stuff we need? All native Win32 code.
