The message is not produced by cygwin itself by by the /etc/profile script, which you can easily edit to remove the section of code that checks the group name. It's just a warning, nothing bad will happen as long as you don't try to use features (e.g. chown and various services) that require a complete /etc/passwd. I would recommend doing that rather than trying to go back in time.
