I have decided to submit the patch myself -- sorry, for the gyrations.
I generally only submit patches that I create and test myself, but I will
make an exception and just point to David and your work in the archives.
Hopefully, this is acceptable by the core PostgreSQL developers.

Yes, the above is the procedure. But, possibly all you would need to do is
replace postgres.exe from the standard Cygwin PostgreSQL with the one
from the CVS build and test.

Good.
BTW, you were most likely "lucky." Normally, make check will fail
due to connection refused errors unless you are on a server version
of NT/2000/XP. See the README for more details, if interested.
