Thank you for your reply. I am going to test your proposals the next
days.
But meanwhile since 3.1.1 there is another problem. I installed 3.1.1,
but forced to again go back to 3.0.7. But since today setup.exe now
longer offers to install 3.0.7. That means: one more installation
attempt and I can not go back and thus can't use cygwin. But I _really_
_need_ this installation. Is there a way to install the downloaded
3.0.7 packages?

Thanks for your efforts.

Henning
