It is easy to verify that cygwin tools like "sh" do not run on Wine.
Here is the output:

> wine "sh -c 'ls; sleep 20'"
err:win32:fixup_imports No implementation for KERNEL32.dll.622(SetTapeParameters), setting to 0xdeadbeef
fixme:console:SetConsoleCtrlHandler (0x6100af50,0) - no error checking or testing yet
fixme:console:SetConsoleCtrlHandler (0x6100af50,1) - no error checking or testing yet
fixme:security:LookupAccountSidA ((null),sid=0x61085704,0x42defbcc,0x42defbc8(20),0x42defb4c,0x42defb48(100),0x42defb44): semi-stub
ls: not foundConsole: Making console complex (creating an xterm)...
zsh: terminated  wine "sh -c 'ls; sleep 20'"

An xterm flashes quickly on the screen and then disappears.

This is what I meant when I said "No.  Cygwin does not run under Wine."

Possibly somebody who is really interested in getting cygwin working
under wine will be interested in tracking this down.  I just tried this
because this question pops up from time to time and I wanted to be able
to answer the question.

Oh:

wine -v
Wine release 20000227
