Comment 5 zachsaw 2013-01-21 03:11:26 UTC
This 'fix' has really broken Netbeans on Cygwin.
It's due to this 'fix' that I now find it impossible to get my apps that require the updated libs from /usr/local/bin to run as the IDE insists on using those under /bin.

I've reported it here: http://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=225119
