Sadly, I can't include this output, as I can't run any cygwin command at
all - they all depend on cygwin1.dll being sane.
The output I can get before it crashes is as follows:
E:\cygwin\bin>cygcheck -svr
Cygwin Win95/NT Configuration Diagnostics
Current System Time: Fri Oct 17 15:06:36 2003
Windows 2000 Professional Ver 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 4
Path: D:\WIN2K\system32
D:\WIN2K
D:\WIN2K\System32\Wbem
E:\cygwin\bin\id.exe output (nontsec)
