The problem there is that $TMP is set to "C:\TEMP" which is a DOS/Windows
path.  Cygwin isn't converting the path to a Unix-style one (has it ever?
should it?).  I just remember to "export TMP=/tmp" before I do compiling;
eventually I'll think to put that in my .bashrc or find some other neat
solution.

DOS
