I got closer to my problem maybe someone can beat me before i find solution...
so when javac.sh gets called, the file below is executed:

#!/bin/sh
/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Java/jdk1.5.0_22/bin/javac.exe $1 $2 $3
`cygpath -w -p $4`

if i try to just call /home/ahojat/bin/javac.sh on a java file to see
if it forwards it correctly like so:
/home/ahojat/bin/javac.sh ClassTest.java
...
It says:
/home/ahojat/bin/javac.sh: line 2: /cygdrive/c/Program: No such file
or directory

I realized i needed to add a \ because of the space in "Program
Files"; so java.sh file becomes:
/cygdrive/c/Program\ Files/Java/jdk1.5.0_22/bin/javac.exe $1 $2 $3
`cygpath -w -p $4`

But now when just running simple compilation test on ClassTest.java again says:
msgfmt: /home/ahojat/bin/javac subprocess failed

Frustrating :(
