Bingo. Definitely try this and see if it helps. I'm pretty sure Jeff got
me to do this in the past to deal with some other problem, so this might be
the relevant difference.
This is an annoying workaround, and I'd love to be able to build with a
stock CygWin install, but dealing with the interactions between shells and
scripts is not my cup of tea. If someone's got a better solution, don't be
shy. :-)
