hmm... i thought cygwin emulates a unix shell in windows.
$ echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/system32:/cygdri.....

anyway, if i use a windows separator (;), it doesnt work and it considers it
the end of the command as per unix shell behavior.

dont know if u r trying to say something different, do u have a solution to
make that work ?
