Okay, here is the cygcheck.out file I forgot to attach in my earlier email.

While I was able to get the two laptop machines to update to 1.7 earlier
today, I'm still not able to get my desktop system at home to upgrade.  I'm
still getting the "Couldn't allocate heap" error message.

<http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#TOFU> <http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#PCYMTNQREAIYR> - Don't feed the spammers. And you want to encourage rather than discourage people from helping you.

These look like problems at least:

Found: C:\WINDOWS\system32\find.exe
Found: find.exe
Warning: C:\WINDOWS\system32\find.exe hides find.exe

Found: C:\WINDOWS\grep.exe
Found: grep.exe
Warning: C:\WINDOWS\grep.exe hides grep.exe

Found: C:\WINDOWS\sed.exe
Found: sed.exe
Warning: C:\WINDOWS\sed.exe hides sed.exe

I'd recommend fixing this so that at the very least the Cygwin versions
of these utilities is found first by 'setup.exe'.  The easiest ways to make
this happen is to either delete the versions in "system32" or move them
somewhere that isn't in the default path.
