Yeah, it had been a couple of months.... I usually try to avoid upgrading it unless there is a new feature I want (if its not broke....)
I had to track down three missing dll files, but now the cut and paste upgrades are working great.
Thanks for your work yet again, Harold.
This was about the only thing on my "it would be nice if it was fixed" list.... For my uses of cygwin anyway.

You must have been going for a very long time before upgrading. Yes,
the cygipc package is a dependency of the X packages, but if you upgrade
from an old version that did not require it, then it might not be
automatically selected for installation. The solution is to manually
select the cygipc package.
