You don't need one if your login shell is a POSIX shell and you don't use Windows applications if you have set a system or user variable CYGWIN_NOWINPATH to a non-empty value. For tcsh I have patched /etc/csh.login to do the moral equivalent; I guess that should be packaged with tcsh eventually. It's usually way easier to add to a clean path than removing cruft and I generally lean into the direction of using wrapper scripts for Windows applications that I need to use from Cygwin since quite often some other things need attention aside from PATH.
