I've been getting the following message when downloading the mirror list:

=======================================================
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library:


This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.
=======================================================

This problem is occurring on the latest version of setup.exe (2.774).

I've tracked this problem down to a corrupt file at
C:\cygwin\etc\setup\setup.rc. It's causing the following function call
to throw an exception:

site.cc:
340   load_site_list (cached_site_list, theCachedString);

The corrupt file is attached in bz2 format.

A workaround is to delete setup.rc and let setup.exe create a new
configuration file.
