You're missing the SYSTEMROOT environment variable in your CGI
environment.  Recent Cygwin DLLs try to circumvent this, so make sure
you're using the latest.  Otherwise make sure SYSTEMROOT is set in the
environment under which the CGI is running.  (That is why it works from
a prompt but not from CGI.)

Was this one added to the FAQ yet?
