Just confirming Bruno DeLoroux observation that cygwin starts very very 
slowly on some Windows XP installations.  And "ls" is fairly slow.  My 
Desktop PC is generally faster than my laptop, but the situation is 
reversed with regards to these cygwin activities; startup is painful on 
the Desktop.
