Cygwin does not have a recent Tcl release (it is stuck at 8.4.1), and there is small chance this will change soon. The only way Cygwin users can have a more recent Tcl/Tk is to use a pure Windows release. However, these do not understand POSIX paths as used in Cygwin. This really only matters for finding the gitk script itself, all other arguments are interpreted by git which is POSIX. This patch modifies gitk to convert the path to the gitk script from POSIX to Windows before execution.
This patch was inspired by a patch submitted long ago by Shawn Pierce.
