I will also try to clean up the profile script to short-circuit when you
are running /bin/sh instead of /bin/bash
One thing you might do is to have the /etc/profile.d sh-update-script
delete itself once it's run satisfactorily.
I guess what got me on this was that there was a zombie /bin/sh process
running during the cygwin update. It might have been a little less
nerve-wracking if there had been a visible message during the
postinstall, instead of picking it up during the login.
Thanks,
Webb
