AAAAGGGGGHHYHHHH!!!!!!!

NO.  Do NOT do this.  This is WRONG.  If you

   a) read the damn announcement:
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-announce/2001/msg00124.html
   b) search the fine mailing list archives
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2001-10/msg00163.html
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2001-10/msg00161.html

You will discover the correct way to fix this "problem" -- which is 
really due to "failure to follow directions".  e.g. PIBKAC.
