For a few months with my own CVS cygwin1.dll builds, as well now with
the last few snapshots, I can't get cron to start:

$ net start cron
The service is not responding to the control function.

More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2186.

Reverting to 1.7.0-50 cygwin1.dll fixes this problem.  I don't think it
was a very recent CVS change since I had this problem with my CVS builds
before 1.7.0-50, but the issue was not present in the release.  I guess it
must be something in common with my, and the snapshot, build process that
is different from the release process?

Cron is installed as a service under the cyg_server user.  Reinstalling
the service does not change the behavior.  Any ideas on how to debug this?
