Rather than express amazement that I raised the issue why not just prove
that this doesn't mean anything by simplifying your path and trying
again?  I would try just doing something like:

c:\>set PATH=c:\cygwin\bin;c:\windows;c:\windows\system32;c:\windows\system32\Wbem
bash$ ...

I also meant to mention that you should remove the reference to /usr/bin
since /bin and /usr/bin are the same directory under Cygwin.  This won't
have any effect other than to make things slightly slower but you don't
need to have this in your path.
