  Wait, what!?  Where's the size of the file?  "ls -l" shows it between the
groupname and the date for me.

$ ls -l /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.4/../../../../i686-pc-cygwin/bin/as.exe
-rwxr-xr-x 2 Admin None 5853442 Jul  4 12:21
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.4/../../../../i686-pc-cygwin/bin/as.exe

  How odd.  Do check if it runs from the commandline; try

/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.4/../../../../i686-pc-cygwin/bin/as.exe -v

    cheers,
