At present DJGPP is in the path, so I can use those utilities from
anywhere.  I was thinking of an alias that did opened a 4dos
window with a /c cygwin.bat, which in turn executed a setlocal,
revised the path, called bash, etc.  I guess the 4dos aliases will
be inhibited in bash.  It looks as if something is going to be
awkward somewhere.

I avoid the rodents as far as possible.  Anything GUI that I often
need to start has an alias to launch it from the command line.  My
alias file is relatively huge.
