Tried this, no difference:

/usr/src/cygutils-0.9.9/src-gpl$ ./mkshortcut -P http://www.cygwin.com #works
/usr/src/cygutils-0.9.9/src-gpl$ cp ./mkshortcut.exe /bin/
/usr/src/cygutils-0.9.9/src-gpl$ /bin/mkshortcut -P http://www.cygwin.com
mkshortcut: Save to persistant storage failed (Does the directory you are
writing to exist?)

Has anyone even seen something like this before?
