Having a manifest is a system recommendation, not an Emacs invention.
I understand that, but I see no reason for the cygw32 build of emacs to be treated specially (and even differently from the X11 and noX builds on Cygwin). With my patch, Cygwin users who build emacs with an old Binutils will have no manifest, like almost all other Cygwin applications, while those who use the new Binutils will get the new "standard" Cygwin manifest (which includes compatibility with Windows 8.1).
