Erm... sorry, but why would you want to do this?  Either you have a
1.5 based installation running a 1.5 perl, or you have a 1.7 based
installation running a 1.7 perl.  If you have two independent
Cygwin trees, one 1.5 and one 1.7, then there won't be any collision
either.  I really don't understand what that's good for.
