Problem with AUCTeX installation under Emacs-23.1

I installed AUCTeX 11.86 under emacs-23.1. The configuration worked
straightforward but I cannot start latex (and other executables) from
emacs now. Execution of the same command in a cygwin bash shell works
perfectly. I tried all sorts of workarounds recommended in the web, but
none of them worked. This is the output of my latex command:

Does it work if you start Emacs from a Cygwin terminal?

Hm, perhaps Emacs uses a different shell?  What's the output of
C-h v shell-file-name <RET>
?
