hlint unable to load .hs file inside Cygwin #2130

[chekkal]

Problem: The syntastic doesn't highlight errors in haskell files using hlint.exe
Solution: Inside the Cygwin env the hlint.exe can't load the .hs name expanded by syntastic inside vim because it contains linux path, the fix is when we detect that we are inside a cygwin in windows to convert the path from cygwin to windows using

cygpath -w

No description of what this is supposed to fix and how = reject.
