Igor,

Thanks. But adopting this approach and running .\cygcheck with 20040525
gave exactly the same Windows-generated error message. I tried your
approach with 20040520 and things are fine.

Gulp. When I posted the problem I was expecting precisely one "me too"
from somebody before we were ticked off for "me too"ing. From your
helpful suggestion, I conclude that what fails for me works for you,
which is a bit of a downer.
Fergus
