Sorry to revive a very old tread but I just found out why WinGrass was not working for me so I though I should documment it somehow. I had a leftover environment variable due to an old Cygwin instal but it was NOT in the system path... There was a variable called CYGWIN with the value set to tty. I removed that and now everything works.
