I just tried to run it on my home XP machine, and it consistantly 
crashes on startup.  I ran it in gdb:
(gdb) run
Starting program: /c/Download/Programming/CygWin/setup-2.340.2.3.exe
warning: LOG: 2 Starting cygwin install, version 2.340.2.3
warning: LOG: 2 Current Directory: C:\Download\Programming\CygWin

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x78403330 in ?? ()
(gdb) list *0x78403330
No symbol table is loaded.  Use the "file" command.
(gdb) back
#0  0x78403330 in ?? ()
#1  0x00425167 in ?? ()
#2  0x00456013 in ?? ()
#3  0x00401170 in ?? ()
#4  0x00401013 in ?? ()
#5  0x77e7eb69 in KERNEL32!CreateProcessInternalW () from 
/c/WINNT/system32/kernel32.dll

Can you make a version available with debug symbols, or is that 
traceback good enough?
