updatedb -> no 'find'

- Subject: updatedb -> no 'find'
Sharing my experiences - i.e. "for the archives"
$ updatedb
/usr/bin/find: /: No such file or directory
Most other things worked...
This was caused by:
$ echo $CYGWIN
notitle glob check_case:strict server=1
$ mount | grep 'on / '
C:\Program\Cygwin on / type system (binmode)
$ cd /
$ CMD.EXE
Microsoft Windows 2000 [Version 5.00.2195]

C:\Program\Cygwin>dir ..\cyg*.*
<blahblah>
xxxx-xx-xx xx:xx <DIR> cygwin
i.e: Cygwin is set for case SENSITIVE operation and the install dir
name NOT matching the / mount entry.
This has bitten me once before; it reappeared due to my fiddling with
the mountpoints at login and logout
(I'm using the same cygwin installation from multiple OS'es/machines).
