Will do, sorry for the trouble.
Perhaps this info could be included in some of these pages, where it will be
obvious even for newbs like me who have just subscribed :

Alexander,
For the future, please do not include the output of cygcheck inline -- it
produces false positives on archive searches. Attach it, as requested at
<http://cygwin.com/problems.html>.

Does the above tell you anything? It should: your /etc/passwd and
/etc/group are not up to date. See
<http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/ntsec.html#NTSEC-RELEASE1.3.20>. You
need to update them.
