which is a cygwin tool. It is normal if it display paths the cygwin way.

You can also confirm cmake is the right one using:
  cmake --version
  cmake-gui --version

OK. So the problem is somewhere else.

Maybe its time to launch the command line cmake, with the options --debug-
trycompile and --debug-output

With --debug-trycompile, cmake lets the temporary files in CMakeFiles/ sub-
directories. In those files, you should find some named *.log, or output.txt 
(or something similar), with the error that is really reported by cl.exe 
(before CMake says the STL is not working).
