It does not have any special cygwin integration.

The installers for Emacs+EmacsW32 (patched or unpatched) comes with
grep and find so I believed this should work. You do not have to use
cygwin's grep and find (and I do not know if that works).

I am not using grep-find myself, only rgrep/lgrep. Can you please tell
us what did not work as expected?
