But others are apparently not.  If a Cygwin app cannot load a DLL, it
returns an error code (53).  You can see this from within 'bash' by
typing 'echo $?' after a command that seems to have not run.  Running
'cygcheck arm-elf-gcc' should help you determine which DLL is missing DLL
when in CMD or Eclipse. But this all really points to that you're still
missing some path, since the DLL is found just fine within the Cygwin
environment.  So a closer inspection of your paths in the two environments
may be an easier way to find out what's missing from Windows.  Presumably,
it's just 'c:\Cygwin\bin'?
