path bug in cygcheck?

OK.  Both 'cygcheck program' and 'cygcheck -s' (in the "Looking to see
where common programs can be found" section) exclude Windows systems
dirs when calling find_on_path(), regardless of whether these
directories are in the user's $PATH.

I would say this is a defect, albeit a minor one, and perhaps not
worth fixing.

It should not be a problem for the purpose of detecting shadows.  As
long as you know to check order in $PATH as well the "common programs"
section, since the latter will miss shadows from the Windows system
dirs.

Cheers,
