I'm also interested in that answer (for my possible future part-time
cygwin buildbot).

I didn't use runit on FreeBSD neither, I preferred (for no other fact
that I already am acquainted with it!) to use DJB's daemontools.

The "hardest" part was to find the correct command line to avoid it from
forking and detaching ;-)

This may be useful to you:

  /usr/local/bin/twistd --nodaemon --no_save
    --python=../slave-dir/buildbot.tac
    --pidfile=../slave-dir/twistd.pid
    --logfile=../slave-dir/twistd.log
    --prefix=slave

(or, at least, it would be useful to use as a cygwin service, which I
plan to try, but dunno about what mingw has as glue to make services...)

    Lapo
