If I change the first line to:
#! /bin/bash
it surprisingly works with both snapshots.


Does the 'bin' subdirectory exist?
Yes.

$ ll /cygdrive/c/apache-ant-1.6.5/ | grep bin
drwxrwxrwx+ 2 Administratoren none      0 Jul  4 01:07 bin/

If not then you're probably running
into an aspect of <http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2005-08/msg01097.html>.

Perhaps a better way to do this would be:

ANT_HOME=`readlink -m "$ANT_HOME"`

Indeed, but that's not my call. I found this problem when trying
to build OpenPffice.org with the newest cygwin snapshot. The
failing snippet is from apache-ant-1.6.5/bin/ant and triggered
by a configure check that tests if ant exists.
