First thing to find out if it's truly broken, or just not known to
work.

With a _safe_ test case, just try editting the code to allow Cygwin,
e.g. on line 121 of keyboard/__init__.py:

  if _platform.system() in ['Windows','CYGWIN_NT-10.0-19044']:

If that doesn't work, try a similar edit on line 123.

One way or the other, you should find out what the _real_ problem is.
