Oh, sorry, you're right. `man install-info' says:
,----
| SYNOPSIS
| install-info [OPTION]... [INFO-FILE [DIR-FILE]]
|
| DESCRIPTION
| Add or remove entries in INFO-FILE from the Info directory DIR-FILE.
| INFO-FILE and DIR-FILE are required unless the --info-file or
| --dir-file (or --info-dir) options are given, respectively.
`----
So, I tried
$ install-info /cygdrive/c/Program\ Files/GNU\ Emacs\ 24.5/share/info/{emacs-w3m.info,dir}
and
$ install-info --info-dir=/cygdrive/c/Program\ Files/GNU\ Emacs\ 24.5/share/info /cygdrive/c/Program\ Files/GNU\ Emacs\ 24.5/share/info/emacs-w3m.info
and confirmed both work. Probably I made a mistake on copying
the command line I tried yesterday. Sorry again.
Anyway, I'll add this issue to the TODO list:
Pass a Cygwin path name to `install-info' when installing info
files for Windows Emacs by using Cygwin.
