First time ever I installed a Cygwin snapshot ... but it installed
cleanly. More important, it solved the current symlink problem and did
not yet create new problems! Thanks Corinna :-)

Since according to the Cygwin FAQ this means re-installing Cygwin I have
to postpone this for a few days but I will test this nonetheless and
will report back to the list (now that the list has graceously agreed to
accept my postings). But currently I prefer and enjoy the new patched
version :-)
Sincerely
Rainer
