Here's how: Use the latest setup.exe snapshot, or the setup.exe being released real-soon-now. Create a setup.ini on a local web server describing your software. Read http://www.cygwin.com/setup.html. Add the appropriate requires: line to your local setup, which will drag in the needed packages from the normal cygwin mirror sites.
