However, there was no /etc/rebase* either (and is none under 3.0.1-1)
To be honest, I find that cygcheck too behaves strangely:

~> cygcheck -f /usr/bin/cygcheck
cygwin-1.7.9-1
~> cygcheck -l rebase-3.0.1-1

And starting X, I get strange xauth errors:

xauth:  file /home/marc/.serverauth.2060 does not exist
xauth: (stdin):2:  unknown command "ac1196cfc1c2dda07dfa426c0520b65c"

Doesn't this look like a spurious newline?
X does start nevertheless.
And .serverauth.2060 is there:

~> ll .serverauth.2060
-rw------- 1 marc None 153 Oct 23 14:05 .serverauth.2060
