I thing that I forgot to mention here is that I am calling the perl commands within a batch script. So I pass ACTIVESTATEPERL to the perl within the batch script and the bat file is run within the cygwin environment.

You cannot be running %ACTIVESTATEPERL%\bin\perl.exe from the "cygwin environment" as %ACTIVESTATEPERL% has no meaning to BASH (you would have to say $%ACTIVESTATEPERL). It would have meaning to the Windows command line program (cmd.exe). Also, cygwin does not use an environmental variable ACTIVESTATEPERL, that belongs to ActiveState Perl which has nothing whatsoever to do with Cygwin.
