I seem to remember that yesterday if I:

cd /cygdrive/
find . -name "?elect?ile*"
then the command succeeded.  However, when I tested it this
morning I got the response:
find:  .: No such file or directory

OTOH:

cd /cygdrive/c
find . -name "ruby.exe" -print


works fine, albeit, a bit slowly.  But it finds the same file as
both:
./cygwin/usr/local/bin/ruby.exe and
./usr/local/bin/ruby.exe

I'm not sure that this is a mistake, but it seems a bit strange.
