ghostscript on Windows and cygwin path style

I have cygwin version 1.32 running on Windows XP Pro.
I have ghostscript 8.11 installed in
C:\gs\gs8.11\bin. Under this same directory, I have a
file called "gs", containing this line:

gswin32c $*

I also have XFree86 installed and xfig 3.2.4

Xfig has a problem invoking gs to convert a eps file
into pcx. The problem
appears to be that gs does not recognize the path
style. In fact when I
invoke gs from the bash shell with a file under the
working directory, it
works fine. But when I call it this way

gs /c/directory/somefile.ps

I get this error from ghostscript

/undefinedfilename in ( /c/directory/somefile.ps)

What should I do?

Thanks,
Nevine
