Actually it's not that clever but it does install the service. My 
problem was slightly different. See 
https://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2014-05/msg00142.html

I'm tempted to say: "I'm a consultant and trouble rarely follows me" ;-) 
however I am also a professional. Still I do what my client asks me to 
do. The client didn't even ask me to use mod_perl! In fact they don't 
use it but wanted to start (that's how far behind they are(?)).

I don't even understand why I need mod_perl at all... I just want to 
authenticate via LDAP to the Active Directory domain server. I set up 
the basic authentication using LDAP/Active Directory authentication but 
the boss is saying he'd like it make it more convenient for the 
engineers and use cookies so they don't have to log in every time they 
restart their browser. I looked up about authentication and cookies and 
that led me to Apache2::AuthCookieLDAP, which is pulling in the whole 
mod_perl thing...

... You're in a twisty maze of dependencies, all different...
