Subject:	setting Win32 environment variables in Cygwin

When I execute a *.bat file containing lines like

Set FOO=12345

FOO does not show up in the environment of the Cygwin shell. Further,
if I execute Win32 programs that access the environment, they can not
see FOO either.

Specifically, I need to do

Set PATH=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit 2003\bin;%PATH%
Set INCLUDE=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit 2003\include;%INCLUDE%
Set LIB=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET
2003\Vc7\lib;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit
2003\lib;%LIB%

So that VC++ will run properly from the command line. Any suggestions?
