Erf, thanks.  I had updated to 1.7.10, but as you guessed, uname -r said 1.7.9.

BTW, after restarting all Cygwin process, uname -r still said 1.7.9.  So I rebooted; still 1.7.9. So
I looked in c:\cygwin\bin, and found that cygwin1.dll was still version 1.7.9, but there was also
cygwin1.dll.new, version 1.7.10.  So I removed cygwin1.dll and renamed cygwin1.dll.new, and now I'm
running 1.7.10.

Is that the expected behavior for setup?  I assume that I had left some Cygwin processes running
when I updated to 1.7.10.  I don't remember setup warning me about replacing files in use, although
maybe it did and I forgot.  But I thought the problem was supposed to take care of itself after a
reboot - I don't remember ever encountering cygwin1.dll.new before.
