That was just wrong what I wrote:
As far as I can see (cf. 
http://www.kdelibs.com/wiki/index.php/Building_KDElibs_4_using_MinGW_with_Qt_4.3) 
cygwin provides most of the build environment for building KDE apps, as 
well as packaging, distribution and installation. There is not such a 
thing neither in the new KDE-apps nor in the existing ports for gtk+ 
etc. What I thought of was using cygwin packages to provide packaging 
for windows apps - like having a subdirectory in the setup list with 
native apps packaged and installing like ordinary cygwin-packages.
That would perhaps mean to extend cygwins setup to a complete package 
manager, which is still missing imo.
