I am willing to try an add this logic. Where is the source for setup.exe ?
I am looking through CVS and I am not finding the setup code: http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/src/winsup/?cvsroot=src
You can find details of building setup.exe at <http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin-apps/setup.html>.
If you proceed, you should join the cygwin-apps list where setup.exe development is on-topic and coordinate with the other setup.exe maintainers. I believe that means Max Bowsher currently (previously Robert Collins) with patches also coming from Reini U., Igor P., Gary V.S., et al.

Thanks for taking care of bugzilla, Reini!
Rather than special-casing the cygwin dll, I think a better solution would be to run all preremove scripts, then perform all file deletions and extractions, then run all postinstall scripts.
This would solve similar problems involving other dlls too.
Are you sure? Other dll's will never get deleted. I believe only cygwin needs this special logic.
Please transfer further discussion to the cygwin-apps mailing list.
