In case someone else has this problem ... after many years of working w/o a
problem, setup.exe failed half way through an install leaving me with a busted
WIN XP cygwin. I removed several Windows updates that i thought might have
caused the problem but that didn't help. I tried my previous version of
setup.exe and that crashed in the same manner. I then tried an even older
version (from 2005 w/ size of 298 KB) and that worked! Here is the diagnostic:
