No, I've been patching fetchmail to skip this permissions check due to
the following:

    http://cygwin.com/faq/faq.html#SEC44

However, the corresponding fetchmail code changed between 6.2.1 and
6.2.2.  Hence, I needed to refresh my patch because the old one would no
longer apply cleanly.  Maybe I got it wrong?

What is the error messages that fetchmail displays?

Any other 9x/Me fetchmail users out there?  Does fetchmail-6.2.2-1 work
for you?

Thanks,
Jason
