You might want to {re,}read the section in http://cygwin.com/problems.html
which talks about referring to a problem as "the problem". I'll quote it
here:
# Do not assume that your problem is so trivial or so "well known" that
it does not require any details or background from you. Many (most?)
people who report problems fall into the trap of assuming that people
are "clued into" their mental state when, in most cases, this is not
the case.
As a rule of thumb, if you find yourself referring to your problem as
the problem with XYZ rather than a problem with XYZ then your message
is suspect. Using the in this context means that you are assuming that
your problem is well known. Unless you can point to an email message
thread or FAQ entry (either of which is a good idea, btw) please do not
assume that the readers of your message will be familiar with your
problem.
