Indeed, my system contains multiple cygwin1.dll's

It seems free pascal also has cygwin1.dll and it's also in my path variable.

When I look back at my journey :) I can only come to one conclusion and that
is that having all these different compilers/tools etc in my path has caused
nothing but trouble.

So I am going to do something about it ! :)

Now more big path's... but I am going to make batch's to set each
environment.

I normally don't use make and command line tools anyway... not even for
delphi.. which is my main tool :)

So having different batch files to set the path's shouldn't hurt :) no next
time things will hopefully go more something

Having 5 or 6 different make.exe's all in the same path is insane ! :D

Thx dude.
