I rebooted my computer because it was late and it was time
to go to bed. It was working fine before I turned it off, and it
didn't work when I rebooted in the morning. And the only thing that didn't
work was the mount points; "ls" (and almost everything else) 
would fail, which I abbreviated to "cygwin didn't work". Two 
simple mount commands fixed that.
Based upon the symptoms, I doubt that cygwin1.dll problems are
to blame, unless there's something in all of the start-up stuff
that uses a rogue copy.

To be complete, I'll go around and delete all of the copies.
If the problem recurs in a week or a month, I'll come back here!
If it doesn't, thanks for your help.
