Since I just want to try to get tramp working on NT emacs with
stock cygwin utils, I made the following two changes in my
tramp.el:

                               (if subshell " )" "")))


This, allowed me to get as far as a dir listing (but, strangely,
only if I did `(setq tramp-debug-buffer t)' after the first
complaint about not seeing an exit status).

Back to square one?

Mark.
