I would've sworn there was an FAQ for this but at least I can't find it 
now.  Oh well.  A quick search of the mail archives turned up one of the
many times this has been asked and answered.  Take a look at:

http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/1998-04/msg00138.html

BTW, this problem occurs on Win 9x machines.  Never heard of it on an 
NT-based platform, unless perhaps you're using command.com on NT too
somehow/for some reason.
