Making a new value for system-type is a drastic thing to do.
It could mean many places that test system-type need to be changed.
Is that really the best thing to do here?  How many of these tests
want to treat cygwin differently from windows-nt, and how many of
them want to treat it the same?

Is it possible to distinguish them using system-configuration?
