Your problem is not with Cygwin 1.7.17.  That package wouldn't come into
play until the postinstall scripts.  Your log shows you don't get that
far.  And if it works interactively, then the problem is with 'setup.exe'
itself.  I can reproduce the problem but don't know why it's happening.
There hasn't been a new version of 'setup.exe' in quite a while so I can't
explain why you would just start seeing the problem within the last week.
