Comment(by kcrisman):
Wow, this is really frustrating. I really thought I had gotten all the
cruft out of these. Thank you for catching those stupid `DS*` files; it's
almost impossible to get Mac not to put them in sometimes.
What is particularly weird is that the package installs fine, so spkg-
install must have been usable, at least! Maybe the permissions were "good
enough"...
As to the .exe, that doesn't seem to have been present before, so maybe
Cygwin was able to use it after all? (Or maybe it just never worked and
no one noticed!)
Since the current goal is to get Sage to build, then start, I hadn't even
been able to check whether Tachyon worked. I did once run doctests on a
functioning Sage on Cygwin, but I don't think it had a problem with
Tachyon stuff. I'll try that when looking at #11706.
