I'll just reiterate what Daniel said again: We can't make things like

Yes, and nobody proposed otherwise.

I wasn't really following the discussion, and don't really want to check
stuff out in git to see what's going on, but if the proposed change just
makes it possible for purists to remove the Windows PATH from the Cygwin
one however that's great.

OK, here it is again in a nutshell, it has two parts:

1. instead of adding the windows PATH in /etc/profile (which doesn't
need it _at all_), just record it there into ORIGINAL_PATH.

But I already have my own ORIGINAL_PATH set for my cygwin environment for my own use

No joy!!
