Cygwin uses a custom ps program that can also handle windows processes
but which does not support all those options.

The version you are looking for is available from the procps package.
The ps binary is also named "procps".

That one won't handle windows processes, but since you only seem to care
about cygwin processes in the script you are writing that should work
just fine.
