The original problem was resolved after a reboot.  There were other 
funny (Ha-Ha) things going on too.

New issue:  consider the following command sequence:
/c/cygwin.$ ls -l *log  # copy log files from 1.5 to 1.7 node
-rw-rw-rw-  1 paul  None    783 Feb  3 17:00 clock_dong.log
-rw-rw-rw-  1 paul  None 594347 Mar  4 20:08 ping_log
-rwxrwxrwx+ 1 Guest None  18519 Sep  3  2007 setup.log
-rw-rw-rw-  1 paul  None   2235 Jan 15 13:42 snapshot.log
-rw-rw-rw-  1 paul  None    420 Feb 13 00:13 wget-log
/c/cygwin.$ cp -v *log ~-/
`clock_dong.log' -> `//clock_dong.log'   <~-/ expanded to "//..."
cp: cannot create regular file `//clock_dong.log': No such file or directory
`ping_log' -> `//ping_log'
cp: cannot create regular file `//ping_log': No such file or directory
/c/cygwin.$ cd -
/
/.$ cd -
/c/cygwin
/c/cygwin.$ cp -v *log   /  # avoid "~-" expansion
`clock_dong.log' -> `/clock_dong.log'
`ping_log' -> `/ping_log'
`setup.log' -> `/setup.log'
`snapshot.log' -> `/snapshot.log'
`wget-log' -> `/wget-log'
/c/cygwin.$

Was there a change that make "//... " pathnames invalid??  I DID finally 
got 1.5 and 1.7 running on same machine.  I was pleasantly surprised.  
Thanks Dave K.

- Paul
