Sounds to me like you have a case of:
<http://cygwin.com/faq/faq-nochunks.html#faq.programming.msvcrt-and-cygwin>
But noticing your environment calls out two other things. You have a pretty
old version of Cygwin (1.5.19) in your installation directory (C:/cygwin/bin)
and an *ancient* version (1.3.22) in your c:/WinAVR/bin directory. Both are
visible in your path. That's a *big no-no*. I suggest removing the ancient
version. You should also consider upgrading your older installation at some
convenient time in the future.
