Re: wget seems to have lost executive capacity

Tuesday is the usual day for MS updates ..

all scripts involving a wget command line move on to the next line as though
it had been  simply a comment
of no executive status.

Examples (showing other execs under /bin are not broken):

~> gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 5.4.0

~> ls --version
ls (GNU coreutils) 8.25
Packaged by Cygwin (8.25-3)

~> wc --version
wc (GNU coreutils) 8.25

run
  strace /usr/bin/wget --version

likely will pop up the missing or wrong shared lib.
