Looks to me like some post-install scripts didn't run.  You may be able to 
figure out
why and fix that if you look at the 'setup.log.full' file in either the 
directory that you
ran 'setup.exe' from or '/var/log'.  This failure accounts for the missing 
paths to Cygwin
executables (in Cygwin shells) and other issues.
