When doing a full installation of Cygiwn on a clean machine,
setup.exe runs into an error when running the postinstall
script for gtk2-x11 as documented in the mail message:

  http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2004-07/msg01125.html

Note that when this error message occurs, X has been installed,
but the X postinstall script(s) haven't been run yet.  As a
result, the default PATH doesn't contain /usr/X11R6/bin.

The attached patch to the gtk2-x11 postinstall script works
around the problem by explicitly setting the PATH for the
postinstall script execution.  It also changes the calls to
mkdir and chmod to use absolute paths as well, though this
probably really isn't neccesary with the PATH being set
properly.
