I did look in windows environment as well (again, see earlier emails).

I am using the regular mintty start that cygwin establishes.  This is
the command line
C:\cygwin64\bin\mintty.exe -i /Cygwin-Terminal.ico -

I can't see in documentation that mintty manipulates the environment
in some way.

More ideas?
