Hi Alan,

Please help to review the below fix for** bug 7132247 
<http://monaco.us.oracle.com/detail.jsf?cr=7132247> 
java/rmi/registry/readTest/readTest.sh failing with Cygwin.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/90659131/fixes/7132247/webrev/index.html

Root cause of this bug is:
1. CYGWIN doesn't handle "\\" correctly, if say FS="\\"; echo $FS, in 
cgywin, will print \\\\ which cause file not found.
2. Java doesn't recognize CYGWIN style path like "/cygwin/d/...", should 
use cygpath to convert to Windows native path.

Thanks,
Eric
