Hi,
I believe there is a bug in the cygcheck I have.
As@dstar ~
$ which cmd.exe
/cygdrive/d/WINDOWS/system32/cmd.exe
As@dstar ~
$ ln -s `which cmd.exe` cmd.exe
As@dstar ~
$ cygcheck ./cmd.exe
-> D:\OTHERBIN\cygwin\cygdrive\d\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe
cygcheck: could not find './cmd.exe'
>D:\OTHERBIN\cygwin is where CYGWIN installed, it has no relation to
>where cmd resides. It makes this a bug, not missed feature.

$ ./cmd.exe /C echo test
