Lester,

Now that we've ruled out user mounts, one possible reason for your problem
could be the traverse checking in the new Cygwin DLL.  Run
/usr/bin/ssh-host-config again with the "-c 'ntsec notraverse'" flag.  If
this helps with your problem, check the permissions on /bin -- it should
at least be executable for everyone.  Once you do a "chmod a+x /bin",
rerun /usr/bin/ssh-host-config again and use the default value of CYGWIN.
