Aha!  Your response led me to the answer for this problem.  Within my company (Ericsson), we have our Unix home directories mounted as the H:\ drive on our PCs.  The H:\ dir just happens to contain a .profile, which just happens to execute /usr/local/etc/profile.global.  And, for whatever reason, when I start a DOS prompt, it defaults to the H:\ drive.  Also, after installing Cygwin, /etc/passwd sets my home dir to /cygdrive/h by default.

So, the answer to the problem is that Cygwin's bash was finding and executing .profile from an unrelated Unix environment.  I'm CCing Chloe, since I'm curious if they have a similar setup within Qualcomm.

Here's that output:
-----
C:\cygwin\bin>bash --norc
bash-3.00$ echo $HOME
/cygdrive/h
-----

Again, that shows the root of the problem.

In the end, I changed /etc/passwd to point to my My Documents dir instead of /cygdrive/h and now everything works fine.  Also, concerning the other post I sent about rxvt setting the font size/spacing to something funny, after changing /etc/passwd, rxvt acts fine as well.

Thanks again!  And just to nail the coffin shut on this, I've attached the output of cygcheck.
