Yes, that's why when using Cygwin, its always recommended that you put
the Cygwin directories in your path first.  If you don't, you may pick 
up other like named utilities which may not work like their Cygwin 
counterparts.  As always, cygcheck -s -r -v will tell you of collisions
of such common tools.
