Subject: Very annoying bash problem

Hello,

starting bash on my Windows XP computer (1GHz, 512MB) takes more than 
one minute!!! It seems as it reads a lot of things from the hard disk, 
but it writes nothing (as the free space doesn't change). It doesn't 
allocate memory as well. This also happens on my Windows 2000 (1.8GHz, 
512MB) after a fresh install of cygwin, only it is not so much time.
It appeared some months ago. The previous cygwin versions hadn't had 
this problem before.

Bert
