I use cygwin bash, make, autotools,etc with my mingw gcc toolchain.
To make it easier I create mounts that translate identically with
cygwin tools and native exes.

C:\cygwin\lib on /usr/lib type system (binmode)
C:\cygwin\usr on /usr type system (binmode)
c:\cygwin\bin on /bin type system (binmode)
c:\cygwin\bin on /usr/bin type system (binmode)
c:\develop on /develop type system (binmode)  <<< "identity" mount
C:\cygwin on / type system (binmode)
c:\Users on /home type system (binmode)
c:\mingw on /mingw type system (binmode)  <<< "identity" mount
c: on /cygdrive/c type system (binmode,noumount)
e: on /cygdrive/e type system (binmode,noumount)
f: on /cygdrive/f type system (binmode,noumount)
g: on /cygdrive/g type system (binmode,noumount)
z: on /cygdrive/z type system (binmode,noumount)

All development sources and builds live in the /develop mount

I also set

DEJAGNULIBS=/usr/share/dejagnu
TCL_LIBRARY=/usr/share/tcl8.4
 as envirnonmental variables

Then the the dejagnu installed  by cygwin's setup just works.

I don't know how to make dejagnu work with MSYS. The cygwin-based
environment that I use appears to be more stable (it has worked for my
builds gcc since 2001).

Yes I will.
