Another spurious "multiple copies of cygwin1.dll" -- this time in perl

[fbartlet@optonline.net]

I can install and run cygwin, but (at least) one application won't work either under cygwin or cygwin/x. When I run perl, I get the message

C:\cygwin\bin\perl.exe (2208): *** cygheap version mismatch detected - 0x6179000
0/0xBF0000.
You have multiple copies of cygwin1.dll on your system.
Search for cygwin1.dll using the Windows Start->Find/Search facility
and delete all but the most recent version.  The most recent version *should*
reside in x:\cygwin\bin, where 'x' is the drive on which you have
installed the cygwin distribution.

Searching reveals that there is, in fact, only one cygwin1.dll and that it's in the /cygwin/bin directory.

rebaseall was no help

I'm rather puzzled -- any clues, anyone?

Thanks!
Fred
