Since updating Cygwin using setup.exe, I have not been able to run either
Xwin or WindowMaker:

This problem is probably due to using incompatible versions of the cygwin
DLL.
Search for cygwin1.dll using the Windows Start->Find/Search facility
and delete all but the most recent version. The most recent version
*should*
reside in x:\cygwin\bin, where 'x' is the drive on which you have
installed the cygwin distribution. Rebooting is also suggested if you
are unable to find another cygwin DLL.

There is a cygwin1.dll in /cygdrive/c/cygwin/bin:
$ ll /cygdrive/c/cygwin/bin/cygwin1.dll
-rwxrwxrwx+ 1 user Users 1805448 Jan 20 10:28
/cygdrive/c/cygwin/bin/cygwin1.dll
$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-5.1 ELEPHANT 1.5.19(0.150/4/2) 2006-01-20 13:28 i686 Cygwin
I have already rebooted the computer several times. What further steps do I
need to take to fix this?


Look for other cygwin1.dlls?  Otherwise please read carefully the entire
page of problem reporting guidelines found at the URL below and follow the
instructions completely.
