Hmm, let me get this straight: you're adding a Windows-style path to the
include path of the Cygwin gcc?

One obvious solution would be to change the path to POSIX, something like
"/cygdrive/w/source".  If you insist on using Windows-style paths, this
may be a quoting issue (you may have to quote your backslashes twice).
