Hm, I'm surprised you didn't note that you recently upgraded your Cygwin
environment.  When you do so and experience problems, the best place to 
look for information on it is the email archives.  Generally, if the problem
is a common one as a result of some change in Cygwin, you'll see other 
reports from the list and, many times, possible solutions.  In this case, 
you'd find your problem would fit right into the path just described.  The
short answer to the problem is, just continue and things will work fine.
Look at the email archives for more details if you're interested.  It's a 
great place to find answers!
