Something to this extent?
PS1_TAIL="$(

for group in $(id -G); do

test $group -eq 114 && { x="#"; break; }
test $group -eq 544 && { x="#"; break; }
test $group -eq 0 && { x="Please remove well-known SID overrides from your
/etc/group file#"; break; }
}
done
echo $x

if [ "$color_prompt" = yes ]; then
PS1='\[\033[01;32m\]\u@\h\[\033[00m\]:\[\033[01;34m\]\w\[\033[00m\007\]\n$PS1_TAIL

else

You'd need to check that group 544 is in your user token. Some folks say 114 too, but if you use cygdrop -l, this group will stay in your token, while you are _not_ having local admin rights anymore. But calling id on a domain member machine can, under unfavorable circumstances, take more than a minute to complete. The AD integration for Cygwin has developed further since I last saw this problem so it's possible it's been solved along with some other things. However since I've not had the time yet to try and re-create the setup that most consistently showed the problem I don't want to put it into any standard startup files.

As on my systems the bug is not present,
it can be a relative recent introduction.
I've introduced this bug inadvertently when releasing base-files-4.1.
I'll fix it towards the weekend.
As long as you're updating base-files anyway, maybe you could implement
one of the previously-discussed proposals for showing a prompt of "#"
instead of "$" in shells with sufficient privileges. Unfortunately, I
don't remember if there was ever a consensus reached on exactly how that
should be done.

base-files-4.2-3 : attention maintainer

Hi,
I've just performed a fresh install of the latest (2.2.1) Cygwin on 64-bit
Windows 7 and noticed 2 issues with the new version that I'd like to verify
whether or not they are bugs:
1) The symlink to protocol file seems incorrect
[user@hostname /etc]$ ls -l | grep protocol
lrwxrwxrwx 1 user Domain Users 50 Sep 22 17:03 protocols ->
/cygdrive/c/Windows/System32/drivers/etc/protocols
[user@hostname /etc]$ ls -l /cygdrive/c/Windows/System32/drivers/etc | grep
protocol
-rwxrwx---+ 1 SYSTEM SYSTEM 1358 Jun 10 2009 protocol
I believe the target of the symlink should be "protocol" (i.e. singular)
Corinna,
the bug is in the
/etc/postinstall/base-files-mketc.sh
of base-files-4.2-3
FILES="hosts protocols services networks"
OSNAME="$(/usr/bin/uname -s)"
WINETC="$(/usr/bin/cygpath -S -u)/drivers/etc"
[cut]
for mketc in ${FILES}
do
if [ ! -e "/etc/${mketc}" -a ! -L "/etc/${mketc}" ]
then
/usr/bin/ln -s -v "${WINETC}/${mketc}" "/etc/${mketc}"
fi
done
As on my systems the bug is not present,
it can be a relative recent introduction.
