I can confirm this. We took a snapshot of October 26th (setup-timestamp: 1098732614), and in that version of setup, none of the file handles for any of the temp files of the form (where c:\temp is your temporary package directory) c:\temp\http%.....\package.tar.bz2 is ever released. The system starts page faulting and the number of handles just grows and grows, and eventually setup dies like this: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Error Runtime Error! Program \\samba\install\win32\cygwin\setup.exe This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
