Based on above advise, I have assumed that I need to install from scratch
the pdksh package first. I have installed source for pdksh-5.2.14 and have
built ksh (pdksh) from there (in Cygwin's b'ash window). "Make install" has
put ksh into Cygwin's /usr/local/bin and I copied it into Cygwin's /bin
folder
To incorporate ksh (pdksh ), I modified my Cygwin bat file (commented out
bash line and added ksh line )as follows:
**********************
@echo off

C:
chdir C:\cygwin\bin

REM bash --login -i

ksh -l 
***************

I think it works (did not try cross compilation yet ;-)), but I get some
annoing errors at the start of the Cygwin's shell now:

: not foundrofile[2]:
: not foundrofile[8]:
: not foundrofile[11]:
: not foundrofile[14]:
: not foundrofile[17]:
: not foundrofile[20]:
: not foundrofile[23]:
: not foundrofile[26]:
: not foundrofile[30]:
: not foundrofile[36]:

What do I need to do to get rid of ": not foundrofile" errors ?

So I am trying - that is what I get:

Wrong.  You should have simply installed the Cygwin 'pdksh' package from
any mirror.

Yep, this should work.

Hmm, this is weird.  Do you have the default /etc/profile (as installed by
the 'base-files' package), or did you customize yours?

I suspect that the errors are actually '.......rofile[23]:^M:not found'
(the ^M, or CR, is doing a carriage return).  It's possible that a
bash-ism got into the default /etc/profile, or it may be a text/binary
error.  I'll check it out if I can reproduce it.

9:1 that the text is 'ksh: /etc/profile[xx]: \n: not found', which does 
sound like a lineend problem.

I ran into this once, when I modified /etc/profile with a text editor 
that didn't understand Unix newlines without paying attention.  Assuming 
that this is the cause, and that /etc is mounted binary, dos2unix should 
fix it.
