Yup, that's a known issue. It's not actually Cygwin that requires the 'SYSTEMROOT' environment variable setting. It's winsock. :-(
"Known Issue". How I hate that word!
Ok, I'll setup my private wikipage on just a wiki which will suite me. (and which allows it).
I will keep you informed then, so that you can discuss it on the mailing-list.
