Yes. But let's stick with this machine for the moment, as it's my "main" Cygwin machine...

...this is curious... I *thought* I'd installed 1.5.15. If I run setup.exe it tells me that the current version of
cygwin is 1.5.15-1 (and indeed the cygcheck output gives the cygwin *package* version as 1.5.15-1). As you point out
(and I failed to spot) cygcheck also indicates that the Cygwin DLL version is 1.5.14. Now I'm lost...
