Ant doesn't do paths right under windows

I'm trying to get ant to work right under windows, or cygwin for that matter.
I've got the patched ant script for cygwin, doesn't help.

Here's the problem, I've got a property defined that's an absolute path:
catalina.home="c:/packages/Apache-Tomcat-4.0"

When I build under cygwin I get:
jschewe@MN65-EGGPLANT:~/projects/fll/code/2002/implementation
>ant compile
Buildfile: build.xml

prepare:

compile:
    [javac] Compiling 6 source files to
\\mn65-fs1\home\jschewe\projects\fll\code\2002\implementation\build\WEB-INF\classes

BUILD FAILED
file://mn65-fs1/home/jschewe/projects/fll/code/2002/implementation/build.xml:213:
\\mn65-fs1\home\jschewe\projects\fll\code\2002\implementation\"c:\packages\Apache-Tomcat-4.0"\common\lib
not found.

Total time: 6 seconds

When I build under windows (windows 2000 CMD.exe) I get:
H:\projects\fll\code\2002\implementation>\\zeppo\export\packages\java\ant\1.5\bin\ant
compile
\\zeppo\export\packages\java\ant\1.5\bin\ant compile
Buildfile: build.xml

prepare:

compile:
    [javac] Compiling 6 source files to
H:\projects\fll\code\2002\implementation\build\WEB-INF\classes

BUILD FAILED
file:H:/projects/fll/code/2002/implementation/build.xml:213:
H:\projects\fll\code\2002\implementation\"c:\packages\Apache-Tomcat-4.0"\common\lib
not found.

Total time: 6 seconds

Does someone know how to fix this?  It basically means I can't use ant for my
JSP development under windows.

Once I removed the quotes it worked.  Thanks.

Could you please provide your build file segment of <javac>?

The quotes are obviously part of the issue, and should be removed from 
your property setting, but I'm guessing you have another issue that 
needs addressing.
