There's none!
That is too bad. I guess that means I will have to worry about varying
environments in our build process. At least until cygwin has the
ability to run in conjunction with other cygwins.

since among other uses it would allow a new version to be tested
along side an older but known version of cygwin.
Kill all cygwin processes (via net stop or psservice and then via
taskman or pskill),
backup the current cygwin1.dll and rename the new (snapshot) cygwin
dll to cygwin1.dll,
start the autostarting cygwin processes again (ipc-daemon2, cron, ...),
test it.
This is not really a solution to my problem, which is how do I run
multiple cygwin versions simultaneously.
