While you don't need to do it, you'll have to re-install Cygwin anyway,
and frankly, installing 32-bit Cygwin from scratch, on a 64-bit Windows
machine, just seems excessively nostalgic.
You're already removing so much cruft --- why let yourself be tied to
the past by sticking with 32-bit Cygwin?

Unlikely. You'll have to do a complete re-install to fix up all the
file permissions and regsitry entries.
