Cygwin doesn't rely on the PATH environment variable to find the binary being forked. It would be disastrous if it did. cgf -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
