It was a deliberate decision to not include it.

This is still more error prone than one would like and I expect anyone capable of getting all the little things right to not have a problem with bootstrapping local::lib themselves (I'd do it via cpanm, but there are other ways of course). Also, just by installing CPAN you aren't polluting main Cygwin files: the modules distributed with Cygwin install under perl_vendor, the modules installed by cpan will end up in perl_site.
