I haven't seen this before, but it is vaguely reminiscent of a
permissions problem. Permissions can be weird under cygwin/mingw. You
have to ensure both the windows and the unix permissions allow the files
to be read. In this environment, sometimes "file not found" can
actually
mean "directory not readable".
