You've got Cygwin installed under 'C:/Program Files', which I suspect
is likely to cause trouble due to the space. (That directory appears
as the spaceless 'Programme' on a German system, but its real name is
'Program Files'.) It certainly shouldn't be missing awk, tar or test.
You also still have Cygwin 1.7.1, whereas 1.7.5 is current.

It's there in the cygcheck output. The Windows-wide PATH can be
configured under Control Panel->System->Advanced->Environment
Variables (or thereabouts).

Yep, a clean install into a directory without a space in the name
would seem the best way forward.
