I have installed cygwin. I am trying to use a combination of bash, imagemagick,
LaTeX, and a few other packages. I have issues with imagemagick. If I run
imagemagick installed externally, i get no problems - run cleanly. 

When I try to run imagemagick (specifically, the montage tool) by a bash shell,
I get:

      0 [main] montage 8856 C:\cygwin\bin\montage.exe: *** fatal error in forked
process - failed to create new win32 semaphore, error -2
      0 [main] montage 6456 C:\cygwin\bin\montage.exe: *** fatal error in forked
process - failed to create new win32 semaphore, error -2
montage: unable to read font `/usr/share/fonts/TTF/arial.ttf' @
error/annotate.c/RenderFreetype/1120.
montage: `%s' (%d) "gs" -q -dQUIET -dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -dNOPROMPT

"-f/tmp/magick-EejJYmzy" @ error/utility.c/SystemCommand/1856.
