I notice that Python just exits when I call it from cmd.exe in XPSP2
but it works correctly if I call it from bash. Cygwin is in my path.

I tried gcc'ing a simple program which prints argv[0] and I didn't see
any difference in what it prints out when I call it from cmd.exe and
when it call it from bash.
