Not sure why it line wrapped the second comment when I sent this. The
part reading "using DOS style paths." is part of the comment line
above it.

Amazingly enough I solved this problem for myself just yesterday.

;; Add to your .emacs file.
;; Handle locating files containing errors for compilers that report
using DOS style paths.
(when (eq system-type 'cygwin)
  (require 'compile)
  (setq compilation-parse-errors-filename-function
    '(lambda (path)
       (replace-regexp-in-string "\n" ""
      (shell-command-to-string (concat "cygpath --unix '" path "'"))

  So you have a script that transforms the paths on the command-line and
launches the app... why doesn't the script /also/ capture the output and
transform it back?
