yes, there are always problems with the way cygwin handles the path on
windows.

You may try this: Get a gdb console from the insight view menu and tell
gdb about the location of your source directory. Lets say your source
files are located in "c:\src" then type on the gdb command line:

[gdb] directory /cygdrive/c/src

you might need to set your executable again with
[gdb] exec-file /cygdrive/c/whereever/foo.exe

now you should see your source and insight just works fine.
