This is a strange comment... I always have cygwin in my
path... otherwise I don't get to use ls, find, etc etc
from the command prompt.

One think I find is that If I every run emacs (well actually
gnuclientw.exe) from the bash prompt it does weird things
to my environment. The cygwin environment screws up my
normal emacs environment.

Does anyone have a work arround for this?
Currently my only solution is to never run emacs from
bash... which is a pain since I you cygwin based development
tools.
