Path syntax with JRE on Cygwin


HI, I do what little "real" work I do these days running in the Cygwin
[1.1.8] environment from Xemacs--i686-pc-Cygwin--21.1.13 and the JRE
from the Xemacs.org package repository.  I seem to be having a problem
because the JRE expects Windows-syntax in CLASSPATH
"C:/JDK-1.3/bin/classes;etc;etc" rather than
"\usr\local\i686-pc-Cygwin\jre-1.3\classes:etc:etc" or the like.

Do I need to download and install TWO JDK's, one windows-type for use
when I'm only in Windows and one X*nix type recompiled for Cygwin for
use when I'm working?  Or could JDE "fake it" by doing the Cygpath
conversions behind the curtain?  Or, maybe, I don't really know what I'm
doing?
