I would support this for another reason: ispell is integrated with the 
various emacsen and gives my such features as flyspell (on-the-fly spell 
check). I just did a clean reinstall of Cygwin and spent a while 
tracking down the latest ispell release - it would be som much better if 
it was a Cygwin module. Or is it possible to use aspell within emacs? I 
can't find any documentation to say yes or no to this.
