(Still lack a windows setup locally to test this. Unassigning for now to not 
block.)

> This is because Hadoop execs "du -sk C:\tmp\hadoop-SYSTEM\dfs\data" with a 
> Windows path representation, which cygwin du doesn't understand.
> {noformat}
> C:\hudson>du -sk C:\tmp\hadoop-SYSTEM\dfs\data
> du -sk C:\tmp\hadoop-SYSTEM\dfs\data
> du: cannot access `C:\\tmp\\hadoop-SYSTEM\\dfs\\data': No such file or 
> directory
> {noformat}
> For this to work correctly, Hadoop would have to run cygpath first to get a 
> Unix path representation, then to call DU.
> Also, I had to use the debugger to get this information. Shell.runCommand 
> should catch IOException from parseExecResult and add the buffered stderr to 
> simplify the error diagnostics.
