Aren't we talking about fetching info from non-Cygwin processes?

no, only the ones linked to the cygwin1.dll

But .., any process found in /proc is not a cygwin processs?
If it isn't why ps -ef reports it?

$ ps -ef
     UID     PID    PPID  TTY        STIME COMMAND
     k        4804   4908  pty0     18:18:29 /cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/system32/notepad

In this case notepad, is a child of bash (pid 4908). So it seams a
cygwin process, isn't it?

No. Just a normal windows process started from a cygwin one.
