So, a couple of things ... Cygwin definitely supports gawk - I use it all the time. My system has a link from awk to gawk, so awk will work. I can't recall if I added that link or if it came with the installation. awk may be in a separate package that you'll have to install from the Cygwin package installer.
As for ps, it works, but it will show only Cygwin related processes. It may have other limitations as well, because it might be impossible or very difficult to support some POSIX features under Windows.
