I don't know about the exact solution you had in mind, but ....
You might want to investigate the -mno-cygwin GCC option. This builds
"MinGW" binaries (Minimum GNU for Windows) which do not depend upon
anything not present in a standard Windows installation. This is how our
Windows tools are built.
Obviously there are issues with doing it this way - no automatic support
for Cygwin pathnames being the biggest - but most of these can be
overcome with little effort, and all overcome with more effort.
