aha, so at this point I don't know anyone who actually uses the cygwin
package ruby.
I use c:/ruby/bin/ruby.exe which is a OneClickInstaller Ruby and I
also use git bash for invoking gem and rake commands.
Basically the git bash is the msys promp on windows, a replacement for cmd.exe.
So is there are reason you need to use the cygwin ruby? or can you
uninstall it. Then install the ruby one click installer and you can
still use cygwin prompt to run all ruby stuff anyway
