From the 'bash' manual:

     Bash uses a hash table to remember the full pathnames of executable
files
     to avoid multiple `PATH' searches.  A full search of the
directories
     in `$PATH' is performed only if the command is not found in the
     hash table.

It's possible that the 'ls' is picking up a previous invocation of that
program that is in /c/NTRESKIT/.  try:

    $ type ls
    $ hash -r
    $ ls
    $ type ls

How did you set the CYGWIN environment variable?  Did you set it at the
shell prompt, did you use an initialization script (that it, ~/.profile,
~/.bash_profile, or ~/.bashrc), or did you use the Control Panel's
System applet?

Try closing all shell windows/prompts and then use the Control Panel's
System applet to set CYGWIN, and then restart your shell prompt.
