It must be something in your configuration.  It runs just fine on my
machine.  To quote Ernie, "The output from cygcheck -s -v -r might be useful
in this case."

Just a note on your script fragment.  the 'ls' is not needed.  The following
will work as well:

	for FI in /usr/info/*.info; do  sed -n 'p' $FI; done
