What I deleted is "borland c" bin directory to avoid cygwin confusing
two "make" tools. and maybe some other PATH variables which I believe
set by some outdated software. It left as

"%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;c:\matlab6p5\bin\win32;C:\PROGRA~1\ULTRAE~1;%HTC_PIC%\BIN;;C:\Program
Files\Common Files\GTK\2.0\bin\"

There is nothing special, the same PC with same path variables run
cygwin no problem. I just get confused why this behavior happens, and
with invoke --login parameter.

output is in attachment as "cygcheck.out". I am running cygwin in
University domain controled windows 2k pro. So lot of parameters are
pre set by IT.

Many thanks for your help.
