I tried to reproduce this, but I failed. I was using the latest version from
CVS which should be the same (since there are not so many changes
currently).
I started the cygwin environment using C:\cygwin\cygwin.bat (I don't know
which shell is running by default) and the following build.xml worked.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<project name="test" basedir="." default="test">
<target name="test">
<property environment="env"/>
</target>
</project>
Then I executed 'bash' and tried again. It still worked. Then I executed
'bash ant' and it still worked. And yes, the PS1-variable is set.
