read environent variable

[cyg_win_user]

i m trying to read environment variable in perl using

        $OSTY = $ENV{OSTYPE};
this will return os type as "linux" or "solaris". but when i try for cygwin
it returns empty string. is the some other syntax of way of finding value of
env variable in cygwin
