Summary0012036: Under Cygwin, FindLATEX does not find installed tools
DescriptionModules/FindLATEX.cmake searches for ps2pdf differently according to whether the machine is WIN32 or not. However, ps2pdf can be present as a Cygwin package, and the FIND_PROGRAM tests as written will not find it.
Steps To Reproduce1. Install cygwin with cygwin ghostscript package
2. Do not install Windows native Ghostscript
3. Use cmake FIND_PACKAGE(LATEX)
4. Observe failure to find ps2pdf from ghostscript installation
Additional InformationI recommend the code at the end of Modules/FindLATEX.cmake change to:

IF (WIN32)
  IF (CYGWIN)
    FIND_PROGRAM(PS2PDF_CONVERTER
      NAMES ps2pdf14 ps2pdf ps2pdf14.bat
      PATHS ${GHOSTSCRIPT_LIBRARY_PATH}
    )
  ELSE (CYGWIN)
    FIND_PROGRAM(PS2PDF_CONVERTER
      NAMES ps2pdf14.bat
      PATHS ${GHOSTSCRIPT_LIBRARY_PATH}
    )
  ENDIF (CYGWIN)
ELSE (WIN32)
  FIND_PROGRAM(PS2PDF_CONVERTER
    NAMES ps2pdf14 ps2pdf
  )
ENDIF (WIN32)

I've tested this, and it will find Cygwin-native tools in preference to native Windows ones.
