Searching the archives I found the following info that fixed the problem 
after removing the entry for cygwin from my system path environment 
variable (right click "my computer", properties, advanced tab, edit PATH 
variable under System Variables). I had added cygwin into the path 
manually to begin with because I like having access to all those 
wonderful tools from the command line. I guess this means I have to take 
it out everytime I wish to compile with mingw... :(
