Does Cygwin's `-mno-cygwin' need Mingw?

Does the `-mno-cygwin' option to gcc work "out of the box" with Cygwin?
In other words, does the Cygwin distribution include Mingw?
Does it need to?
If `-mno-cygwin' needs some other software (i.e. Mingw) installed in
order for it to work properly, it might be a good idea to modify the
code for `-mno-cygwin' so that it checks whether Mingw has been installed,
and if not, reports a clear error message.
(I spent a bit of time trawling the Cygwin and Mingw web sites
in search of the answer to this fairly basic question, but
I didn't spot it in the FAQs.)
