Well, at least  I tried to.   I ran "/bin/ps -ef"  and only saw one "ps"
and one "ash" process.

Thanks for the explanation.  This had escaped me.

I did, and I think this list os more or less the same as the output from
"rebaslst".  But I'll compare more thoroughly later.  What caught my eye
though is that both lists seemed sorted more or less with respect to de-
scending file names, except for

/usr/bin/cygLLVM-3.1.dll                     base 0x5ca90000 size 0x0128a000  
/home/Rainer/repo/netcdf/bin/cygnetcdf-7.dll base 0x5dd20000 size 0x032a0000  
/usr/bin/cygORBitCosNaming-2-0.dll           base 0x61580000 size 0x0000c000  

All my other local DLLs appear at the very end  of these lists.  Is this
just the way "rebase" works internally or does this indicate a problem?

Talking about problems:  Python still  does not work  (and perhaps other
stuff I just haven't yet tried).  Should I try re-installing Python?

But I would be more at rest if this all would be sort of explainable.

Sincerely,
  Rainer

PS: Please also reply to me personally, as I am currently not subscribed
to this list (though I'm considering to join it,  due to urgent pleas by
others :-)
