Hi Alan,
I assume you are not testing on wine for fun, but cygwin on wine
seems a real problem as the bug can be in any of the two platforms.

Could you clarify the original scope ?
Eventually we can test in your behalf.

As alternative to wine, if I am not wrong, Corinna when testing cygwin 
on several platforms (32/64, XP, W7, W8 , Server...)  is using some VM
and also her main compiling machine is a Linux one;
setup.exe itself is cross-compiled on a Linux machine.
Eventually it is a more easy approuch for your trials

Regards
Marco
