Interesting...  I didn't have any consoles open (that I remember) during the 
update, but I've rebooted and done an update since this issue surfaced (again 
with no console open) and it hasn't resolved.  I've been wondering if I should 
remove the C:\cygwin directories and try installing again.  I'm hoping I won't 
have to do something that drastic.
