I'm running ant just fine under Cygwin since I uninstalled the JDK from it's usual 
location and installed it in a location under the Cygwin root. In my case:

CYGWIN_ROOT=c:\local\cygwin
JAVA_HOME=c:\local\cygwin\usr\local\j2sdk1.4.0-beta3

This has the effect of enabling Java in both the Windows CommandLine and the Cygwin 
shell. Oh, I almost forgot, I also have my copy of ant installed under the Cygwin area 
in the same manner (and Tomcat etc...)

Hope this helps.

Simon
