Yes. I was hoping it would happen on your machine too. Given that it doesn't, I
understand that there is nothing you can do directly to help with this.
However, I don't really have any more detail to give. It doesn't run long enough
to create any log files. I guess I need to build setup myself, and throw some
extra logging in there to isolate the problem.

So... I untar the setup source from cygwin.com/setup-snapshots, ./configure,
make

And get an error - implicit declaration of mkdir_p(). Ok - I fix this by moving
#include "mkdir.h" outside an #if defined(WIN32) && !defined (_CYGWIN_) section.

At the end of the build, I get a rather worrying warning:
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/2.95.3-5/../../../../i686-pc-cygwin/bin/ld:
warning: cannot find entry symbol _WinMainCRTStartup; defaulting to 00401000

But the setup.exe does run, and does reproduce the crash.

At the moment, I'm building it cygwin1.dll-linked. Would you post a MinGW build
recipe when you have time?

Thanks,

Max.

Minor unrelated thing: An a.exe is created in the build directory. It is an
invalid Win32 application.
