''TODO: Go through libraries as well.''
In order to bring your Cygwin environment as close as possible to the UNIX System, you want to install at least the following packages and their dependencies. Note that some of these may be missing from the 64-bit distribution. You can find a full list [http://www.cygwin.com/cygwin-64bit-missing here]. Furthermore, not all of these packages are necessarily useful for the purpose of OS development.
* base-cygwin
* bash (utilities: <tt>alias</tt><ref name=builtin>This is a Bash built-in command.
