That sounds like a good theory, but I don't think it's it.  First, I 
don't have a .bashrc or .bash_profile (I don't actually use bash on 
Windows, it was a diagnostic technique).  Second, from the cmd.exe 
window, the commands make and rsync are looking for work fine. The path 
in cmd.exe and bash are exactly the same, just expressed differently.  
I've attached a transcript.

It seems like something is wrong with the system() call, something 
low-level like that, but I don't know how to get to the bottom of it.
