awk permissions related problem - manual-entry --> awk: permission denied

I recently (a week or two ago) downloaded a newer verion of cygwin and
now I'm unable to use the ntemacs command "manual-entry" (used to
display man pages). When I invoke this command, emacs complains "awk:
permission denied; process exited abnormally with code 126". I checked
permissions on /bin/awk, which is a symbolic link to /bin/gawk, and
they are lrw-r--r--. Permissions on gawk are -rwxr-xr-x. I tried
setting CYGWIN to ntsec and adding execute permission to awk, but this
didn't solve my problem.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
