Your bash login script probably sets up your path. PODS starts gcc directly
and therefore uses the Windows path.
Solution: make sure 'c:\cygwin\bin' is in the Windows path.
You can check/change the Windows path by right-clicking 'My Computer' ->
Properties -> Advanced tab and selecting the 'Environment Variables' button
at the bottom.

Have been running with my own Cygwin and prc-tools since the beginning of 
PODS.
