Cygport prints ">>> mintty requires:" at the end, which is correct as it doesn't require anything beyond the Cygwin DLL, but there's no setup.hint.
As Corinna already pointed out, this is a sign that the setup.hint generation succeeded, and in this case the requires: line is blank (and rightfully so, since mintty uses only cygwin1.dll and Win32 APIs). If it had failed, there would have been a warning about a missing .hint file instead.
I've also tried installing cygport from git master but got this after running ./autogen.sh && make: make: *** No rule to make target `data/gnuconfig/config.guess', needed by `all-am'. Stop.
This is one quirk of git that I've never understood: git clone does not expand submodules by default without the --recursive flag. Run "git submodule update --init" to get these after a clone.
BTW:

Variables beginning with an underscore are for internal use only. This should be RESTRICT=postinstall-doc. But what problem did you encounter to necessitate this?
