OK, so I roll back to my old cygwin:
* changed my windows (w2k sp2) path to
PATH=d:\bin\cygwin\1.3.13-1\bin;d:\bin\cygwin\1.3.13-1\usr\X11R6\bin;d:\bin;C:\WINNT\system32;C:\WINNT;
etc. The only cygwin references are the two at the front.
* run the shortcut to my old bash
I get the message

> bash: /bin/grep: No such file or directory
But both grep and echo are in /d/bin/cygwin/1.3.13-1/bin/, and run if
I cd there. 'id' also runs from there.

That's what I'd like to know! so I run

which is completely wrong. So what I'd like to know is, how is
cygwin's path determined? (Apparently not entirely by the windows
path, at least not by default.) And how do I fix it?
