Thanks, Roman.  But please keep the discussion on the mailing list, so 
that others can benefit from it.  I'm including your attachment in this 
reply.

The attached file is not consistent with the list of packages that you 
gave above.  The versions in your list are newer than those in the 
attachment.  That's why I was confused by your email.  If I assume that 
the attachment represents what you really have installed, then your 
observations are consistent with the ones I made in

   http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2012-06/msg00043.html

Can you confirm this?

Ken
