It all depends on what you want to do with it and wahtr limitations you are able and willing to accept, but those dependencies are what makes it hard to have that "portable Cygwin". And no, you don't need to run rebaseall each time you use the stick on a new system, but it may well not work at all for entirely different reasons if you chose NTFS (and a host of other problems if you don't and go with FAT32).
