On cygwin -- update --system gives error.

Installing the latest Rubygems gem on cygwin just gave me:

install timer.rb /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems
install user_interaction.rb
/usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems
install validator.rb /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems
install version.rb /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems

I'm not sure which version I was updating from, and have
forgotten how to
find out the versions I have.  Is this worth exploring
further, or shall I
just leave it?

        Thank you,
        Hugh

Please run:

ruby -d setup.rb

I don't have the setup.rb for this without unpacking the
gem.
I've now re-installed from the zipfile, so maybe this is
moot.

As I thought, that just tells me what I have rather than
what I had.
