It seems to be picking up the Windows installation of Python (which is in

as most of the time I do not want to use the cygwin python installation.
What concerns me now is that the changes I have made have now broken my
nmake build so will probably have to fiddle with the paths again...

Both pythons are used, the Windows native one directly by the Wireshark
build, and the Cygwin one by the asciidoc stuff.  I'm not sure what the
issue is with your build environment yet.  I do not use the Cygwin python
either and would much rather we didn't require it.  Maybe this announcement
(
http://www.hanselman.com/blog/DevelopersCanRunBashShellAndUsermodeUbuntuLinuxBinariesOnWindows10.aspx)
that
MS is making Ubuntu tools available might help in the future.

nmake is much more directly configured via config.nmake so is likely to be
more resilient about path issues but does require the correct manual
configuration.

Apart from the changes to path which are probably mitigated by the manual
configuration in config.nmake you should be able to return to nmake quite
easily.
