Thanks for the suggestion. It doesn't work for me though:
{{{
$ rebaseall
rebaseall: '/c/Users/myname/AppData/Local/Temp' is not writable
}}}
Setting TEMP to another directory before running rebaseall yields the same
error for
the new directory. I get the same results starting ash from a) a normal command
prompt, b) an elevated command prompt, c) selecting ash.exe in windows explorer>
r-click > run as administrator

I must have made a typo in one of my earlier tests, this is what finally worked:
Start > Command Prompt
{{{
mkdir d:\temp
set temp=d:\temp
set tmp=d:\temp
cd c:\cygwin\bin
ash
rebaseall -v
}}}

I for the life of me can't get this to work. I've tried every combination of
ash, dash command prompt, start-run, right-click and run as admin. and it just
does not work.
also maphew, you said ash -> rebaseall -v. but I have to do a /bin/rebaseall -v
(only to get the same error! *$*%#)

I have not tried this package but I was experiencing the same issue with
rebaseall. I was able to fix it by opening CYGINSTALLDIR/bin/rebaseall in a
text editor and changing line 83 to from:
TmpDir="${TMP:-${TEMP:-/tmp}}"
to
# TmpDir="${TMP:-${TEMP:-/tmp}}"
TmpDir="/tmp"
Hope this helps someone.

In case even Davids comment doesn't solve your problem as was the case for me
you can try this:
create a temp folder as in comment 3 (it can be on the c drive or whatever for
our purposes lets assume it is), open cygwin and chmod 777 that folder:
chmod 777 /cygdrive/c/temp
Close cygwin, run cmd execute these commands:
set temp=c:\temp
set tmp=c:\temp
cd c:\cygwin\bin
ash
$/bin/rebaseall
Hopefully it will now work!

I did all the things and my temp dir problem was solved but still I am unable
to make it work. Now I am getting the following message
$ /bin/rebaseall
: not foundall: 2:
: not foundall: 18:
/bin/rebaseall: 21: basename: not found
: not foundall: 28:
: not foundall: 31: {
[-b BaseAddress] [-o Offset] [-s DllSuffix] [-T FileList | -] [-v]
Anyone know the fix. I am realyy frustrated

@ Comment 8:
I had exactly the same problem. Since I had cygwin closed, I used WordPad to
edit the file /bin/rebaseall (NotePad is -- in contrast to WordPad -- unusable
since it displays the whole file in a single line). However, I suspect that
WordPad changed "LF" into "CRLF" on those lines that I edited, possibly
resulting in exactly the message that you posted.
I finally made /bin/rebaseall running by restoring the original version and
instead applying the following command:
chmod 777 /cygdrive/c/Users/<username>/AppData/Local/Temp
(where <username> is replaced by your login name).

@ Comment 8
After you change that file, open a cygwin prompt and do2unix it...
dos2unix /bin/rebaseall
then exit that prompt and try again
run ash.exe and cd /bin and ./rebaseall

I had the same problem on Win7 x64 with Cygwin 1.7.9. The solution offered by
"Comment 7" fixed the issue. Thanks!

After editing the script and dir permissiosn as indicated, rebaseall can now
access the temp dir, but somehow the file 'rebase.lst' is missing from the temp
dir:
/usr/lib/zsh/4.3.12/zsh/zle.dll
/usr/lib/zsh/4.3.12/zsh/zleparameter.dll
/usr/lib/zsh/4.3.12/zsh/zprof.dll
/usr/lib/zsh/4.3.12/zsh/zpty.dll
/usr/lib/zsh/4.3.12/zsh/zselect.dll
/usr/lib/zsh/4.3.12/zsh/zutil.dll
cannot read /cygdrive/c/Users/JF/AppData/Local/Temp/rebase.lst
Any suggestion?
Thanks!

Thanks for this info.
As I expect to use this quite a bit, I wrote a batch file (ouch!).
Note that you may need to modify those 'IF' statements used to detect the drive
where
CYGWIN is installed according to the location of your cygwin (I usually use
C:\cygwin but have recently copied a cygwin installation between machines,
putting it at E:\XP\cygwin).
NOTE: It requires to have CYGWIN set in your environment.

re: http://code.google.com/p/cyg-apt/issues/detail?id=8#c13 - Determining the
drive letter can be done in one step using variable substring syntax, replacing
lines 17 thru 33:
set drive=%CYGWIN%:0,2%
but even that can be avoided by using 'pushd' or 'cd /d' to change drive and
path at once, replacing lines 17 thru 39.
:: these are functionally equivalent (in this context)
pushd %cygwin%\bin
cd /d %cygwin%\bin
References:

context, because it can be used with UNC paths (\\server\share\path)

Great, thanks for the tip !
Whilst I don't really want to invest in "DOS" batch skills, this would have
saved me some time this morning.
I'll save away those links ...
