THANK YOU, Andy! That's exactly what I was looking for! (I saw the snapshot link, too, but it just didn't click in the wee hours of the morning...) I can access my file server again, although there does seem to be a performance hit through Samba for some reason. That's fine for now because I backup my home server when I go to sleep, so I won't see the performance hit anyway. I'll make sure to download 1.7 when it's official.

For what it's worth, this is the first panic-making problem I've encountered with Cygwin in years. Can't say the same thing about Microsoft.
