First off, a note to anyone including either setup logs or cygcheck
output: *please* include it as an *uncompressed* *text* *attachment*
(Colin, I'm not picking on you personally). It really does screw up the
archive search with false positives.
As for your problem, Colin,

I don't know for sure that this is it, but this may certainly foul things
up. It's usually a good idea to select a local directory outside of your
Cygwin tree.
Try moving the whole /tmp somewhere outside of Cygwin tree (I use
C:\install\Cygwin), and re-run setup with the new local directory. You
may have to create a new /tmp, as well.

Setup is not dependent on perl (and I'd be surprised if any postinstall
script is).
