I have been saying for several months now that I would like to set up
a Cygwin buildbot--an important step in making that platform
supportable again.  I now have the infrastructure available to do so
(Windows VM on an OpenStack infrastructure at my university).  I
wanted to wait until the tests on Cygwin were more stable, but since
you allow unstable buildbots I could include it among them for now.
Is the buildbot setup documentation on the wiki page still accurate?

Thanks,
Erik
