This is with the two export lines in etc/profile (I put them below the two pre-existing export lines), and after all the previous steps reported success. (The fix.sh reported, near the end, a bunch of errors with _tmpdir "permission denied" but then reported success on exit.) The all401.zip was unpacked into c:\cygwin, which is where cygwin was installed (the default location). AFAICT, and as far as the documentation indicates, it *should* be working.
