Tim,
The "cygcheck" command can be used to print detailed information about
all your installed Cygwin software ("cygcheck -s", "cygcheck --help",
"man cygcheck"). The Cygwin DLL itself can be identified with "uname
-a". Most of the executable programs in Cygwin will disclose their
version when invoked with "--version" (or a variant: "-version", "-v",
"-V" etc.).

When discussing cygwin issues, how does one identify the version of
his/her cygwin distribution? The "setup.log" file created by the
cygwin installer gives the version of the installer itself, as well as
the version of each installed package, but what about an overall
version for the distribution?
