A couple of days ago, I fired up cygwin and it spit out the line ": command not found" about 40 times before giving me the prompt. I have no idea what I might have changed--to my knowledge I have changed nothing. I've rummaged around a few files in my cygwin folder (home/stephen/.bashrc, etc/ profile, etc/profile.d/00bash.sh) but I don't see anything invalid therein (which is not to say that I would necessarily know how to spot anything invalid).

When you fire up a cygwin shell, it's actually running a DOS-style batch file in a regular Windows Command Shell terminal to launch bash. I suspect the errors are coming from the batch file rather than your bash init scripts.
