If you Google for "cygwin installation profiles", you'll see that this
has
been suggested multiple times, as far back as October 2001. Nobody
volunteered to take this on. If you have enough programming experience,
and are willing to contribute your time, please take a look at the setup
sources (at <http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin-apps/setup.html>), and
submit a patch to <cygwin-apps at cygwin dot com>.
