[perl #110190] [PATCH] d002144 RT#65052 Sync full ENV when cygwin perl does "use Win32;"
Message ID:

Scratch the first Win32 patch. Use the attached instead.

After discussion with Jan Dubois I've added your code as
Cygwin::sync_winenv() and revised perlcygwin.pod
to use that function when needed.
It will be in the upcoming cygwin perl-5.14.2-1 package, 
which is now in test.

The problem to load that generally to e.g. Win32 is that cygwin-1.7
warns now on every occurance of non-posix paths.
Initially I thought we should do that unconditionally when loading
Win32.pm or Win32::OLE, but we need some tests before.
Better let the users add it when needed.
