Here's your problem: CYGWIN environment variable changes only affect
CYGWIN if they are set _before_ cygwinstarts.

If you're on NT, set cygwin via the system control panel or the .bat or
.cmd file that runs cygwin. If you run any cygwin daemons/services use
the system control panel. For 16 bit ^H^H^H^H^H^Hwin9x platforms set it
via autoexec.bat
