So basically all you did was replacing platform detection with
    platform="mswin"
and commented out three lines of code that notify about the change?
(Did you just find those lines annoying or did they actually fail to
work?)

Just curious: what does
    uname -s
    uname -m
return on cygwin or what is the best way to detect windows in "shell"?
(I believe that should be easy enough.)

In that case I would use
    export PATH=/cygdrive/c/context/tex/texm-mswin/bin:$PATH
instead, but of course it's your choice.
