Indeed. Why not installing the standard way?

It depends on your choices...

usr> find . -maxdepth 1 -type d
.
./bin
./include
./info
./lib
./libexec
./local
./man
./sbin
./share
./src
./ssl
./tmp
./X11R6

It seems that your installation aborted.
Maybe you could check the number of files in your tar...

bin> cygcheck -c | grep emacs
emacs                21.2-13            OK
emacs-el             21.2-13            OK
emacs-X11            21.2-13            OK
xemacs-emacs-common  21.4.21-1          OK
bin> cygcheck -l emacs | wc -l
1143
bin> cygcheck -l emacs-X11 | wc -l
3
