If so, what are the minimal requirements, ie mounts etc. Is there a "super" minimal option in the standard cygwin installation that does take care of registry entries, etc if necessary and just puts the: Cygwin1.dll (+sources to satisfy the GPL). in the right place and adds the appropriate registry entries? There may be other DLLs your application relies on which I don't know about.
