Actually, I thought of that just after I hit send on my last post. :-( I then tried doing just that on Netbeans 6.5.1, and that fixed the issue.
On Eclipse it did not. Or at least not yet. I have not been able to configure Eclipse 3.4 CDT plug-in to recognize the complete Cygwin environment. I did get it to actually build the app, but it has issues running and debugging. So, still experimenting..... It's just a pain since this used to work on my old laptop, which had a previous version of cygwin installed.
