I suspect this is yet another incompatibility with the latest TCL 
(8.4)that the cygwin group released recently. It appears not to understand 
cygwin paths any more which makes it pretty useless as a cygwin package. 
We're working on a workaround. In the meantime assuming you do indeed have 
TCL 8.4, try downgrading to 8.3. Run cygwin's setup.exe again and toggle 
the selected package version for the TCL package to try and get an earlier 
version.
