  Tim may have been thinking of non-cygwin apps, i.e. non *cygwin* apps, i.e.
apps that do not use or link against cygwin1.dll, i.e. win32 apps, rather than
non-cygwin apps, i.e. *non-cygwin* apps, i.e. ones that aren't from official
packages.  So I guess the answer is

(cd / && ls -1 usr/bin/* ) >a.txt
gunzip -c /etc/setup/*.lst.gz  | grep '^usr/bin/.' > b.txt
cat a.txt b.txt | sort | uniq -u

... although this will also find anything that was created by a postinstall
script as well: shortcuts in particular.  (There may be other false
pos/neg-atives, I haven't been thorough...)


    cheers,
