There is a win32.py in Platform which set's env['PATH'].. Also in some cases the individual tools have default paths on win32 to check.
What's the path YACC, bison, etc are installed on your system? How did you install them? It may be we need to have some more reasonable defaults for such tools if there is a common/default install path on windows.
