Matt's right. I've had some problems with cygwin vs. windows command line
using a pre-compiled fossil version. I would try from both, and if it works
in one but not the other (or vice versa) with the paths set correctly in
both environments, then you'll probably narrow down where the issue is.

The simplest solution might be to point your Windows PATH value to include
your cygwin's /usr/bin/ folder.
