selenium: [🐛 Bug]: can not launch geckodriver.exe under cygwin environment

What happened?

Under Cygwin environment using selenium-webdriver version 11.4? I got the error :

/home/mcheav/.gem/ruby/3.2.0/gems/selenium-webdriver-4.11.0/lib/selenium/webdriver/common/child_process.rb:57:in `spawn’: No such file or directory - D:\cygwin64_latest\cygwin64\usr\local\bin\geckodriver.exe (Errno::ENOENT)

I use this workaround to resolve the issue. In selenium-webdriver-4.11.0/lib/selenium/webdriver/common/service.rb file, I replace @executable_path = path by @executable_path = ‘/usr/local/bin/geckodriver.exe’ in initialize method.

How can we reproduce the issue?

require 'watir'
Watir::Browser.new :firefox
