Hmm, I do have "C:\cygnus\cygwin-b20", I think it's an
incomplete version, although it does still at least
"sort of" work.  Since I'm trying to install this new
one in "D:\Cygwin", that *shouldn't* be a problem, at
least not for any well-written program, but I guess I
can't rule out bugs in the installer.  I'll hide that
directory (and delete the registry entries I mentioned
in a previous post) and try again.

PATH from User variables (excluding non-bin dirctories):
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\MSDev98\Bin;

C:\Nokia\Update_Manager\bin;
C:\Program Files\Microsoft.NET\SDK\v1.1\Bin\sdkvars.bat;
C:\dm\dmd\bin;
C:\dm\dm\bin

PATH from System variables (excluding non-bin dirctories):
C:\Symbian\6.1\Shared\epoc32\gcc\bin;
D:\Perl\bin\;
D:\Nokia_Symbian\6.1\Shared\epoc32\gcc\bin;
D:\PROGRA~1\Borland\CBUILD~1\Bin;
C:\Program Files\PRC-Tools\H-i586-cygwin32\bin;
C:\Nokia\Tools\Nokia_Developers_Suite_for_J2ME\bin;
C:\Nokia\Update_Manager\bin;

Heheh, so I guess the answer is "yes".

No, but if hiding the old cygwin-b20 stuff and clearing
the registry entries doesn't work, I'll try that.
