And, there is incredibly little in this report that helps anyone here
help you figure out where your problem is. Content-free problem reports
serve no useful purpose. If you're interested in reporting a problem,
please read and follow the problem reporting guidelines at:
<http://cygwin.com/problems.html>
Following these guidelines will give people on this list some basis for
helping you find the problem you're having. For example, Mikkel's report
allowed me to understand that his installation was incomplete. From there,
I could suggest one possible course of action:
<http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2006-11/msg00686.html>
The more high-quality the problem report, the better the feedback. :-)
