OK.. there's just been a discussion vaguely about this subject involving a 
version of Cygwin called Xygwin. You might want to read through that 
thread, which starts here: 
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2003-02/msg01250.html
The interesting part of the thread (for you) starts here:
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2003-02/msg01286.html

Read this carefully, find out what the people behind Xygwin failed to do 
with Cygwin, and do it to the cut-down version of Cygwin you want to have. 

Good luck,
