There may be a bug in the program that happened to be triggered by what you were
doing.

   Didn't see anything out of the ordinary in setup.log, setup.log.full,
or in the "cygcheck -s -r -v" output.  What debugging info is
available for the setup program itself beyond setup.log* ?

Do you know how to use gdb?  If so, I could make a debugging version of setup
available to you (or maybe you could build it yourself?).

The corresponding symbols for this executable are available at [1], but note the comments [2]
