I discovered afterward that this is related to FAQ #14.  This Server
2008 is running Terminal Services, and that is the key fact.

http://www.cygwin.com/faq/faq.setup.html#faq.setup.setup-fails-on-ts

I'm sorry that faq escaped my attention.  I didn't recognize the
connection, since I set up Cygwin on a local console, not through
Terminal Services; but now the relationship is obvious to me.
