I tried with the 09-17 snapshot as well now, on XP SP3 with all the latest
patches and on W7.  To no avail.  I still can login fine.  It does not
matter if I try from a local login or from a remote machine, and it does
not matter if I try to logon from a non-privileged account to a privileged
account or vice versa.

I don't see anything in your cygcheck output which would point to a
problem.  There's just the fact that you apparently have (or had)
another Cygwin installed in C:\cygwin:

Is there a chance that your service entires still point to a cygrunsrv
under C:\cygwin instead of D:\cygwin-1.7?
