This doesn't appear to be applicable. cc1.exe is buried in the gcc-lib 
structure (called by gcc), and it doesn't provide any further info other 
than what I've posted.

Additionally, MS seems to indicate that the actual message is some form 
of permision problem, but in typical MS fashion they aren't real 
specific on how to nail down exactly what is causing the problem.

I'm reluctant to apply a snapshot because the rest of cygwin appears to 
be working, and the idea of overlaying things isn't really appealling at 
the moment.

If anyone has suggestions on how to narrow the possible causes, I'm all 
ears (or eyes).
