[BUG?] run.exe and pdflatex

Hi,

so i have a latex file here. "pdflatex document.tex" works. But "run
pdflatex document.tex" does not.

"run.exe" seems to be the best way to call cygwin application from
external windows apps. But the seems to be some difference from invoking
by a shell.

pdfetex seems to check the name by it has been invoked. When invoking
from the shell, it correctly finds out, that it has been invoked as
"pdflatex" but when invoked via run.exe, this check seems to lead to the
wrong result.

I guess, it's a bug of run.exe which might do more work, than it should
(like following symbolic links, or such stuff).


Regards,
  Sven
