The cygcheck comes up with procps, but that's only because I installed it. You may be right, perhaps the package wasn't there before. It was a combination of coincidences (misbehaving xterm, firewall warning of someone wanting to connect to sshd) that made me suspect something was wrong. I'm going to catch a few snores and take another look at those event logs.
