It seems that http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/ov-ex-win.html needs to
be amended because it says (copy of the last sentance)...
All tools may be used from the Microsoft command prompt, with
full support for normal Windows pathnames.
I don't think so. The previous sentences restrict that 'all' to the
"set of tools capable of writing console or GUI executables that rely
on the Microsoft Win32 API", that is, the mingw32 compilers, linker,
and so on.
Regards,
Buster.
