<p>After getting tired of having to re-run the CygWin setup-x86.exe a few times to install one-more-missing-requirement, I discovered this PR and manually extracted "scripts/ci/installCygwin.bat" from this PR to my system so I could run it manually.</p>
<p>Afterwards doing "cd build.win32x86/pharo.cog.spur;  ./mvm" worked like a dream and an hour later the compile completed successfully.</p>
<p>So it seems this is a great initiative.  What is holding it up?<br>
Can an admin give the CI a bump to see if the error was transitory?</p>
