Like cgf, I can't reproduce.  It looks like the wget binary
D:\tools\cygwin\bin\wget.exe is not a Cygwin binary, despite being in a
directory path having the word "cygwin" in it.

Please run `cygcheck D:/tools/cygwin/bin/wget.exe' and paste the output
into your reply.  Also, did you try the latest developer snapshot from
http://cygwin.com/snapshots/ to see if the problem persists?  Iff it's
a problem, that is...
