Perhaps a better question is why do you think investigating this problem

If you find there is something Cygwin-specific in this process that's
confusing you, it might help us understand you better if you reformulated
the question with your specific issues stated.



That's a good point.  I don't know for sure it's Cygwin.  What I wanted to
do was to use strace on the process and see if I can find out what it's
doing.  When I tried to do that, it would say cannot attach to process.  I
tried using "strace -p" as well as starting the process with strace.  The
problem I had with starting the process with strace is that with the
arguments I'm passing to the process, strace didn't like it.  I tried
putting quotes around the start command as well.  That's where I'm stuck...

So what's the command line you're using?  Does the following work for
you?

  strace -o ls.out ls /usr
