Try these:

1. Rerun 'setup.exe' again.  Cycle through all the pages taking the defaults.
   This will make sure that the post-install scripts all run to completion 
if they
   didn't last time.  Make sure you use the 'setup.exe' from cygwin.com.  The
   current version is 2.680.

2. Remove any previous versions of Cygwin or stray cygwin1.dlls you may
   have hanging around.

3. Look for <http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#BLODA>.  Remove ant found.

4. Look for and remove or otherwise hide any toolsets providing like-named
   utilities.

5. Look in /var/setup.log* for complaints.  Fix problems reported as possible.

6. If all else fails, read and follow the problem reporting guidelines found
   here <http://cygwin.com/problems.html>.  It's probably worthwhile to
   *attach* your setup.log.full to any such future problem report.
