You can satisfy your curiousity.  Remember this?
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2005-01/msg00730.html

I don't know if it has yet become obvious but this is not the first
time that someone has suggested that they want to do this.  I think
trying to make multiple versions interact is a bad idea, so I'm not
going to be doing any work in this regard.  Since you don't seem to
have engaged any of the other two cygwin developers, it seems like
your only alternative is to do the work yourself.
