Eli,
You were right about those quotation marks in the path causing trouble for emacs. When I removed them, diff was found by ediff and I'm happy. Thanks for the help.

I mean this, for example: "\"C:/Apps/cygwin/bin\"" The inner quotes should not be there. You don't need them in Path, either: Windows knows that the only delimiter there is ';', so whitespace doesn't need to be quoted.
