After many attempts, I cannot duplicate the above (ie, #2).  So, I cannot
determine what is the root cause of your problem.

It appears from your response, that you already have ash installed since
you have a file called "/bin/sh".  Note that Cygwin installs ash as "/bin/sh".

Hopefully someone can see what I'm missing...  Maybe sending the output
from "cygcheck -s -v -r" to the list will help to find your problem.
