Following up on myself, I find that there is a filesystem ACL 
problem with Windows XP Home and Cygwin, where the 'admin' 
account is appearing as 'Owner' with 'root' like filesystem 
rights, and end users appearing in group 'Users' but without 
sufficient permissions to do installs into /usr/local/ (which 
is where I had ./configure'd mysql to instll the resultant 
binaries and libraries).

I'll have it do an install in the building user's tree, and 
try again tonight.  As the mysql build alone takes 104 
minutes, it is a bit laborious.
