I guess I wasn't clear enough in the footnote when I said I would 
disable some features of tlmgr.  What I meant was that I would disable 
the features that deal with package management.  But tlmgr does other 
things that could be useful (like managing default paper size), and I 
would like to make those things work on Cygwin.
