Steam and related tools fail on cygwin

#113

Hi,

Running "steam create Test" on a Windows box with Cygwin and the Cappuccino 0.55 tools fails with error message:

cp: cannot stat `C:\\usr\\local\\share\\objj\\lib\\NewApplication': No such file or directory

This is a result of not sending OBJJ_LIB thru cygpath like CLASSPATH and STEAM_BUILD. Adding this line in the Cygwin specific part of the steam script fixes the problem:

OBJJ_LIB=`cygpath -wp "$OBJJ_LIB"`

    We should remove the Cygwin dependency by writing Windows equivalents to the shell scripts. There's not really a good reason for it, and it seems to be more trouble than it's worth.
