I am at a loss: since I upgraded to 1.5.3, some of my configure scripts
fail with "invalid package name: module" message (obviously, "module" is
a valid name); I traced this to an "expr" call; if I add any `expr'
call right before the failing one, everything works just fine. _WEIRD!_

now, I decided to check my installation, and cygcheck reported that
some packages are incomplete:

diff                    1.0-1              Incomplete
newlib-man              20020801           Incomplete
XFree86-base            4.3.0-1            Incomplete

what do I do about it?

I tried reinstalling.  didn't help.
tried removing diff (why is it there anyway?), but it re-appeared again.

what is going on?
am I missing something trivial?
