This was caused by a packaging oops in cygwin-1.3.5-1.  It included
mingw and w32api files by mistake, and overwrote the REAL mingw and
w32api packages when installed.  When you upgrade to 1.3.5-2 (which
correctly does NOT contain those files), they were removed.

But the original ones from the ACTUAL mingw and w32api packages were not
reinstated.

As I said, a packaging error.

Anyway, the fix is to reinstall mingw and w32api.
