No success. So: I tried to execute rebaseall and rebase from a CMD.EXE window under DASH: Thu 01/04/2018 7:10:13.23 c:\cygwin\bin>dash /bin/rebaseall rebaseall: only ash or dash processes are allowed during rebasing Exit all Cygwin processes and stop all Cygwin services. Execute ash (or dash) from Start/Run... or a cmd or command window. Execute '/bin/rebaseall' from ash (or dash). I briefly searched the mail list and the Cygwin online docs, no foolproof (essential here!) instructions to run rebaseall under DASH from CMD.EXE. Or, should a rebaseall solve the "child info fork" issue above?
