I don't think `setup-cygwin.el' changes HOME.
AFAIK it does not change any env vars except SHELL and PATH.
It adds your Cygwin dir to PATH. And it sets SHELL, `shell-file-name',
`explicit-shell-file-name', and `ediff-shell' to bash.exe in your Cygwin dir.
Can you please try to figure out which part of `setup-cygwin.el' interferes with
your settings? You can do this easily by commenting out different sections -
e.g. bifurcate until you find the offending bit.
Let me know and I'll try to make a reasonable fix to `setup-cygwin.el'. Thx.
