I don't think pyinstaller knows anything about Cygwin explicitly.
Instead, you need to list all DLLs used by your program (namely
cygwin1.dll, possibly others) in the spec file for your installer, so
that it copies them into the package too.

You can use the cygcheck program to check exactly which DLLs are
required by the executables in your program.  For example you will
also likely need Cygwin's libpythonXY.dll, and possibly others.
