OK. Unfortunately my installation is totally borked ATM with a 1.5 vs. 1.7 conflict, so I can't even tell you which package versions I have installed in 1.7. So that may actually be the problem-- my cygcheck and/or cygwin versions may be out of date. So I guess let's put this report on ice for now, until or unless I can reproduce it in a sane installation.
