Good to know but I doubt that they will. For those who need this -
here is a workaround for node-gyp v5.1.0 I just found:

cygwin> mkdir /c/Python37
cygwin> ln `which python3.6m` /c/Python37/python.exe

I aware of the version clash here but c:\Python37 is one of a
few explicit locations this node-gyp looks at. Doesn't seem
confused if the versions don't match. The file you link to 
must be the actual Cygwin executable not any of the python 
links in /bin.

Sure but python seems to start just fine under cmd and it does do
some gyrations with sys.executable dependent on calling environment.
So this looks somewhat fishy to me.

See above.
