It seems to me like the ensurepip module has some problems. Shouldn't
the following be working?
$ cygcheck -c -d|grep python3
python3 3.9.10-1
python3-devel 3.9.10-1
python39 3.9.10-1
python39-devel 3.9.10-1
python39-pip 21.3.1-3
python39-setuptools 59.5.0-1
$ type python3.9
python3.9 is hashed (/usr/bin/python3.9)
$ type pip3.9
pip3.9 is hashed (/usr/bin/pip3.9)
$ pip3.9 --version
pip 21.3.1 from /usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/pip (python 3.9)
$ pip3.9 list

This causes the failure of "-m venv", which is what I ultimately want to do:
$ python3.9 -m venv /home/crd/testvenv
Error: Command '['/home/crd/testvenv/bin/python3.9.exe', '-Im',
'ensurepip', '--upgrade', '--default-pip']' returned non-zero exit status 1.
I also tried python38 and had similar problems.
Thanks...
