I have a fix for this problem.

The problem is in gdb/gdbtk/generic/gdbtk.c (look for 
ide_create_shell_execute_command). You need to move it outside the 
'#ifdef __CYGWIN__' block.

I would have submitted the fix, but when I did this I also needed a 
number of patches from mingw.org so it didn't seem appropriate here.

Hope that helps

Andrew
