It does not, at least for me.  In fact I spent many hours a few months 
ago making sure that we could run make check from Msys, despite the 
dual-set-of-paths - see the changes to pg_regress.sh that were made 
around then.

In fact, of the whole gamut of checks my buildfarm script runs (make 
check, make installcheck, and contrib's make installcheck), this is the 
*only* failure due to a path problem.
