Ken and Jon,

I've downloaded setup-2.893.x86.dbg referenced above.  I haven't used
gdb in a while but I am confident I can use it.  I''ve read the page
referenced at sourceware.org/git.

I'm willing to build a setup-x86.exe to work with setup-2.893.x86.dbg

The whole point of preserving the symbols is that you don't need to rebuild setup in order to debug it.

Something like the following should work:

upx -d setup-x86.exe
gdb setup-x86.exe
symbol-file setup-2.893.x86.dbg
run
[reproduce crash]
bt full
