Problem Using Ant 1.5.1 on Latest Cygwin

I originally emailed Cygwin's mailing list about this.
However, it seems they've deliberately changed the
way cygpath works, and the ant shellscript to launch
it has broken as a result.  It seems concentrated
primarily around munging JAVA_PATH to work with Cygwin
inside the ant shellscript.

More details here:

FYI: things worked fine under Cygwin 1.3.17.  I
upgraded to Cygwin 1.3.20 today and all hades broke
loose.  As a workaround, if you set your JAVA_HOME to
a Cygwin style path that has NO spaces in the dir
names, it works OK.

Thanks in advance.
