Apples/Oranges.  "cn" is used as the Cygwin group name for an existing
Windows group.  It's just a name change.   I don;'t know if anybody is
interested in this at all, but it was possible with /etc/group.

For instance, you just hate the group name "Domain Users", so
you set the cn attribute to "HiveAnts", and Cygwin will use the
name "HiveAnts" as Cygwin user name.
