First  time  ever I installed a  Cygwin  snapshot ...  but  it installed
cleanly.  More important, it solved  the current symlink problem and did
not yet create new problems!  Thanks Corinna :-)

Since according to the Cygwin FAQ this means re-installing Cygwin I have
to  postpone this for a  few days but I will  test  this nonetheless and
will report back to the list (now that the list has graceously agreed to
accept my postings).  But  currently I prefer and  enjoy the new patched
version :-)

Sincerely
 Rainer
