I just stumbeled over the following problem:

$ cat shelltest.sh
#! /bin/sh
ANT_HOME="/cygdrive/c/apache-ant-1.6.5/bin/.."
ANT_HOME=`cd "$ANT_HOME" && pwd`

With cygwin1-20050825.dll:
$ ./shelltest.sh
./shelltest.sh: line 3: cd: /cygdrive/c/apache-ant-1.6.5/bin/..: No such file or directory

With cygwin1-20050716.dll:
$ ./shelltest.sh
/cygdrive/c/apache-ant-1.6.5


If I change the first line to:
#! /bin/bash
it surprisingly works with both snapshots.

P.S.: cygcheck attached.
