Description:
run mtr on a recent tree on cygwin.  get warnings about not able to create *lower-test* in \tmp\SD34h9 or similar

How to repeat:
run mtr on a recent tree on cygwin.

Suggested fix:
this isn't a pretty patch -- need a function cygpath_chomp() but i don't know perl well enough to make best fix.

Should be tested again with mtr.pl v2
