If you're not a newbie, you should know how to find the package that
has this file.  OK, maybe you've just had allot of experience installing
and using Cygwin but never really paid much attention to anything else.
See <http://cygwin.com/packages/>.  That should help you.

Good question.  Of course, cygcheck output is missing (as an attachment).
That helps diagnosis.

Also, run through this thread from today:
