I can confirm your guess, the following lines are in my /var/log/setup.log:

    2009/06/04 18:06:49 running: C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe --norc --noprofile -c /etc/postinstall/man.sh
    2009/06/04 18:06:50 abnormal exit: exit code=127
    
Here's a complete list of abnormal exits, note that I did 2 install,
first time is default, second time is full-install. I used 
`grep abnormal -B 1 setup.log':
