OK, well if you actually changed absolutely *nothing* relative to Cygwin
then your problem lies elsewhere. As for your 'cygwin.bat' file, that's
fine. It works fine for me with minor edits to make it conform to my
environment. The only suggestion I'll make beyond looking at other areas
in your system is to try running 'cygwin.bat' from a DOS command prompt
window. If you can reproduce the problem there, there may be some output
that would help you zero in on the issue.
