When I run mkdfa.pl on the supplied sample files, I get the following. I'm on Windows XP and logged in as an administrator. The "test path" worked as instructed (except "julian" isn't there; it is "julius" in version 4). I tried dos2unix and unix2dos with no change in the behavior. I installed Julius 4.1.5 instead of 3.5.2.
# mkdfa.pl sample
sample.grammar has 3 rules
sample.voca has 6 categories and 18 words
---
Error: Can't open grammar file "/tmp/g1916.grammar"
Error: cannot open "sample.dfa.tmp"
---
no .dfa or .dict file generated
The cygwin/tmp folder exists, but is empty. It creates a "sample.term" file, but nothing else.
Any suggestions on what I should try next?

This is a bug in mkdfa.pl script that occurs when you run the Windows build of Julius in Cygwin.
You not longer have to run Julius or its grammar scripts in Cygwin. You can run Julius directly from the Windows terminal (i.e. Command Prompt).
With your favourite editor edit the mkdfa.pl script (in c:\cygwin\home\homedirectory\voxforge\bin\julius-4.*.*-win32bin\julius-4.*.*-win32bin\bin) by searching for each occurrence of 'cygdrive;' and replacing it with 'cygdrive|cygwin':
line 144 and 151:
if ($tmpprefix =~ /cygdrive/) {
becomes:
if ($tmpprefix =~ /cygdrive|cygwin/) {
