Looks like my memory made something up -- Thorsten says it was never 
included in cygwin. That would make it difficult to find!

I tried looking in the package search on the website, but of course I 
didn't find it. I thought it was due to ubiquity of the term 'tree', but 
it looks like it's because it just wasn't there.

Thanks for the help!
