Huh? why do you set PATH to a Unixy value when you are on a Windows
machine?

You should instead set PATH to the same value you set exec-path (only
not as a Lisp list):

> (setq exec-path
> '(
> "C:/Windows/system32/"
> "C:/Windows/"
> "C:/Windows/System32/Wbem/"
> "C:/Windows/system32/WindowsPowerShell/v1.0/"
> "C:/Program Files/Aspell/bin/"
> emacs shell echo %PATH% puts out

> /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/

Of course! because that's what you set it to, above.
