Re: Prelease of cygwin-1.1.3-1


I have now installed from the internet the full cygwin-1.1.2 using
setup.exe, followed  by testing, then done a local install of the test
tarball for 1.1.3, with testing.

Both the new desktop shortcut to cygwin.bat and my original shortcut
using Charles Wilson's 'run.exe' worked as I expected with 1.1.2, with
the full MS environment being visible.

When I installed the 1.1.3 cygwin tarball, the batch file startup still
worked as expected, with the full env available, but my shortcut does
not.  The environment it prints includes only the following:

BC_ENV_ARGS=-q
CDPATH=.:/usr/bob:/
EDITOR=/usr/local/bin/vim
EXINIT=set ai sm sw=4 terse noshowmode
HOSTNAME=ramjr
HOSTTYPE=i586
MACHTYPE=i586-pc-cygwin
OSTYPE=cygwin
PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/local/bin:/contrib/bin:/drv/c/winnt/system32:/drv/c/winnt:.
PROMPT_COMMAND=xtitle "@ramjr    " "$PWD"
PS1=[ramjr]$ 
PWD=/usr/bob
SHELL=/bin/sh
SHLVL=1
TERM=cygwin
TERMINFO_DIRS=/contrib/share/terminfo
_=/bin/env

I'm not sure why the 3 instances of /usr/bin in the PATH, but that is
the only strange thing I see.
