Before you resort to trawling through source, did you try a fresh Cygwin 
install (either to a different directory, or after temporarily moving 
your current tree)? Sometimes, e.g. if you use the same "packages" 
directory between two different versions of Windows, I've found that 
Cygwin can get screwed up in strange ways.
