Works fine for me.

That's right. emacs-23.2-3 is current, and there is no experimental
version.

That's not actually the binary; it's a symlink that resolves to either
/usr/bin/emacs-X11.exe or /usr/bin/emacs-nox.exe, depending on whether
or not you've installed the emacs-X11 package. Is it possible that you
upgraded the emacs package but are still using an old emacs-X11? If
not, I don't know what the problem could be. If you can't figure it
out, you could try giving the command
cygcheck -svr > cygcheck.out
and sending the resulting cygcheck.out as an attachment. Maybe I (or
someone) will be able to spot something.
