Madoka Machitani was that someone:

    http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-announce/2002-05/msg00013.html

Specifically,

    I would like to thank Madoka Machitani for his pre-compiled
    fetchmail and procmail binaries and for the patches necessary
    for proper operation under Windows 9x/Me.  His work on the Cygwin
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    ports made it much easier for me to become the Cygwin maintainer.
