Install the latest Cygwin to A number XP machines with the same
installation procedure, but
some machines work fine and some did not. The shell does not like the
subrutine in a script file (See below).
Even the error output is strange -- s is replaced by a <'>. There is no
' symbol in the script anywhere, so
I do not know what the bash complaint about.
Has anyone seen the same problem?
