Maybe. There's a currfile LaTeX packages which has some macros for printing the path of the current file. I haven't used it so far but maybe that can do the trick, i.e., diagnose which directory is active during compilation. >> But when you TeX only with auctex on cygwin, why not install the >> cygwin texlive packages (or use the texlive installer from cygwin)? >> I'm pretty sure it'll work then. > > I TeX only with AUCTeX, yes.

You mean, you want to install the cygwin TeX Live and then use that from both cygwin emacs and windows emacs? I actually don't know but I think chances are better than the (current) other way round since emacs uses ~/path/like/these also on windows IIRC.
