Heh. I just looked, and it seems you've never posted the output of
"cygcheck -svr" on your system ...
Well, I didn't think I was reporting a problem except possibly with my own
understanding...
I bet ... the DOS "Read-only" bit on the directory is probably set.
Bingo!
Having changed that, I get:
ls -ld /tmp
drwxr-xr-x 12 michael None 245760 Dec 18 14:26 /tmp
... and...
if [ -w /tmp ]; then echo "Yes"; else echo "No"; fi
Yes
