I waited for the mirrors to update and then installed
procmail-3.22-13.  The result: /usr/bin/lockfile is once again
present, and my backup script now runs and completes properly, much to
my relief.

So: thanks very much.

And just in case nobody says this often enough: you have a difficult
job maintaining a beast as complex as Cygwin, and we all appreciate it
very much.

It is very dark & after 2000.  If you continue, you are likely to be
eaten by a bleen.
