As per a report on the cygwin ML, this package contains three Microsoft
DLLs in usr/bin.  I checked and the package actually contains these DLLs.

This is a NO-NO, especially since it also creates very strange problems
when running some Cygwin applications.

I've removed the versions 2.2.3-1 from cygwin.com.  Please send a new
version ASAP, which doesn't contain Microsoft DLLs.
