cygpcre.dll missing after update


Greetings,

  I just updated to 1.5.5, and subsequently, whenever I start
  up bash I get an error stating that cygpcre.dll cannot
  be found. I perused the archives here and saw a few
  references to this problem but no clear solution.

  I tried re-installing the pcre package and installing
  earlier versions of it via setup to no avail.

  I found /bin/cygpcre-0.dll and copied it to cygpcre.dll
  and the problem "went away," but I rather doubt this
  is the correct solution.

  Any suggestions would be most welcome.

  For that matter, if anyone can point me to a reference that
  describes how dll's are named and/or located at runtime,
  that would make me more effective as well.

   -Norton Allen
