I've never used mixtex, so I'm just making this up. But: it's
possible that mixtex has accidentally invoked the Cygwin version of
pdfeTeX, instead of its own. Try putting miktex's directory on the
front of your PATH, like this:
$ PATH=/cygdrive/c/Program Files/texmf/miktex/bin:$PATH latex myfile.tex
