Already done for NSIS. See those three people at least:

http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=cygwin&m=111351786214881&w=2
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=cygwin&m=113525279200090&w=2
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=cygwin&m=100075284818001&w=2
  => http://cygwin-lite.sourceforge.net/

But be sure to provide the src packages also to your users. e.g. with an 
optional checkbox.

All these attempts will most likely fail if a proper cygwin setup is 
already installed. It's very easy detect by the mount points in the 
registry. So please be sure to play nicely with an already existing 
cygwin, and copy only the necessary files to the proper places then. We 
hate duplicate cygwin1.dll's.
