I recently (a week or two ago) downloaded a newer verion of cygwin and 
now I'm unable to use the ntemacs command "manual-entry" (used to 
display man pages). When I invoke this command, emacs complains "awk: 
permission denied; process exited abnormally with code 126". I checked 
permissions on /bin/awk, which is a symbolic link to /bin/gawk, and 
they are lrw-r--r--. Permissions on gawk are -rwxr-xr-x. I tried 
setting CYGWIN to ntsec and adding execute permission to awk, but this 
didn't solve my problem. 

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks
