I just upgraded cygwin using the latest setup snapshot (2.340.2.3.2.3).
Among the items upgraded were GCC mingw (20020817-4 to 20020817-5) and the
cygwin dll (1.3.17 to 1.3.22-1)
While uninstalling packages a message box appeared with the title sh.exe,
saying that cygwin1.dll could not be found in the path (which includes
c:\cygwin\bin). At this time gcc-mingw was on the setup screen. I OK'ed, and
the install proceeded as usual.
$ ls /etc/preremove
cygwin-doc-preremove.sh gcc-mingw.sh
gcc-mingw-manifest.lst gcc-mingw.sh.done
I intend roll back to my previous version of gcc-mingw, and then upgrade
again to ensure the mingw install is clean.
I would guess that the corollary to the following bugfix is required for the
preremoves.

Other than this the upgrade went fine.
Thanks,
