Stick with it.  A Cygwin tool could do nothing above that.  If you
really want a Cygwin tool, just write your own:

#include <stdio.h>
#define WINVER 0x0500
#include <windows.h>

int main ()
{
  if (!LockWorkStation ())
    {
      fprintf (stderr,
	       "%s: Can't lock workstation.  Win32 error code %lu\n",
      		GetLastError ());
      return 1;
    }
  return 0;
}
