I use Cygwin in the course of work, and while I can use the external gpg

Can I convince you to also embed a signature in the installer, so Windows
recognizes the file is signed?
I couldn't find a previous request on the mailing list for this, but I may
have missed it in my attempts to grep the monthly digests.

See thread "Should cygwin's setup*.exe be signed using Sign Tool?":

In case we ever need it, one of our setup maintainers packaged osslsigncode:

Packaging error: the binary is placed in /usr
