One think I find is that If I every run emacs (well actually
gnuclientw.exe) from the bash prompt it does weird things

normal emacs environment.
You've got things backwards; you're supposed to start Emacs every
morning, and never leave it. Only run bash from Emacs :).
That's what I do. I set _all_ my environment variables, and path, in
.emacs. Actually, I have several small snippets of elisp that let me
change the environment variables for different projects. Easier than
maintaining bash scripts or using the control panel.
