perl -V will show osname=cygwin for cygwin and osname=MSWin32 for ActiveState
(among other differences).  Depends which is in your path first, and from
your cygcheck output it looks like this would be the cygwin perl.

AFAIK, yes.  Though it looks as if you already have (if in fact you
are running the cygwin perl).  I'm a little confused as to how you
could have modules but not know you installed them.
