On my 266 MHz Win98 machine (yes, I know it is old, but it makes a great regression tester):
$ mount -m
mount -f -s -b "d:/cygwin/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts" "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts"
mount -f -s -b -X "d:/cygwin/bin" "/bin"
mount -f -s -b -X "d:/cygwin/bin" "/usr/bin"
mount -f -s -b "d:/cygwin/lib" "/usr/lib"
mount -f -s -b "d:/cygwin" "/"
mount -s -b --change-cygdrive-prefix "/cygdrive"
$ uname -a
CYGWIN_98-4.10 bedroom 1.5.17s(0.128/4/2) 20050513 17:27:58 i686 unknown unknown Cygwin
$ cygcheck -c cygwin
$ echo $?

$ strace cygcheck -c cygwin

$ echo $TERM

It seems like the output of cygcheck and strace are being suppressed until they are invoked through a second layer. But they are obviously doing something, even when the output disappears.
