As an alternative to Igor's suggestions, if you're willing interject a
different shutdown scheme into your process, you can always create an
alias or a script that does the above and then calls Cygwin's 'shutdown'
in the flavor of your choice to do what you're looking for.  'shutdown'
is available in it's own Cygwin package.
