I can confirm that you can have different problems if cygwin/bin is added to 
PATH after some of the windows directories.

I had the problem on one vm, and it went away when I installed a new windows 
package, simply because the PATH statement changed.

Changing the PATH is not really part of the build system, it is something you 
normally do in the control panel or in the .bashrc (more effectively because it 
only affects cygwin).
