The bat file was setting %path% to the proper directory, and bash couldn't
find mkdir.  Based on what you mentioned in the paragraph above, I modified
cygnus.bat to also set %$path% to %path%.  Voila!  Back in business.  It
must be something I did, but I have no idea how any inadvertent mod I might
have made to cygnus.bat could have survived a reinstall.
