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.
