Mike - it seems like what happened within Cygwin is that the PATH
and the ROOT variables aren't getting set/modified properly at all.

<pre wrap="">Thanks, Brian. I'm starting it using the Desktop icon that setup.exe
makes. It turns out that a large part of the problem is that there's
also an installation of MKS Toolkit (which provides bash, Korn, and C
shells) on the same machine and it looks as though it and Cygwin
interfere in such a way that it's really the MKS Toolkit binaries that
Cygwin is using. I may forgo using Cygwin i.l.o. MKS just to not have
to reverse-engineer a way for the two apps to coexist.

Good to know.
Probably all you need to do is put Cygwin before MKS in the system path,
so that the system will prefer the cygwin versions. But I assume that
if MKS is installed then there must be a reason, and it would likely
mean breaking MKS and whatever depends on it then.
