Just for the sake of documenting what didn't work, I also tried
deleting the usage of the "fake" config utility from the
configure script, and that failed because it then used the
cygwin system's already-installed gpg-error libraries.  Those
are "Cygwin" libraries and what's required are "Mingw"
libraries, so the final linking step failed.  That's pretty
much what I had expected since setup.exe isn't a Cygwin
application.
