No.  setup.ini lists the packages that are available for install.  Often 
there is a "previous" version as well as a "current" version.  This 
allows you to choose, when running setup.exe, the previous version if 
you don't want to install the current version for some reason. 
Occasionally there is also a test version.  None of this has anything to 
do with which packages you have installed.

I just tried these commands with no problems:

$ pdfetex -progname latex sample2e.tex
This is pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-2.5-1.40.14 (TeX Live 2013/Cygwin)

If you read it, you'll see near the end which packages you have installed.

The one suspicious thing that I see is your path.  For example, the 
cygcheck output includes

   Warning: C:\bin\awk.exe hides C:\cygwin\bin\awk

Could there be other things in C:\bin or C:\cygwin\opt\cross-mint\bin 
that are interfering with Cygwin?

Sorry, I can't help you with that.
