I didn't do anything other than tell you what you should have been able to 
glean from the web.  Sorry if I sound sarcastic, but it is the little things 
like not following directions that make me less inclined to sound polite in my 
replies.  http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html explains this 
quite succinctly: "What we are, unapologetically, is hostile to people who seem 
to be unwilling to think or to do their own homework before asking questions. 
People like that are time sinks — they take without giving back, and they waste 
time we could have spent on another question more interesting and another 
person more worthy of an answer."

Not when the DIRECTIONS at http://cygwin.com/problems.html, which I ALREADY 
referred you to, state, in bold font:

 # Run cygcheck -s -v -r > cygcheck.out and include that file as an attachment 
in your report. Please do not compress or otherwise encode the output. Just 
attach it as a straight text file so that it can be easily viewed.
