Cygwin setup will sometimes defer replacing in-use files until the next
reboot. If setup asked you to reboot after upgrading Cygwin last time,
that means it had some files scheduled for replacement, while you were
still running with the old versions of the DLLs. Rebooting may fix the
problem for your client machine as well. The same, obviously, applies to
Antoine.
