This is not an Emacs problem. This is how the install-info.exe
program (part of the Texinfo package) works: it localizes these
introductory instructions to the Info system when it installs Info
files.
As for where install-info takes your language, it's quite possible
that (this being Windows), Cygwin deduces that from your system or
user locale, since the Windows definition of the locale is not in the
environment, it's elsewhere (and can be obtained by calling a certain
API).
So you want to ask this question on the Cygwin list, not here.
