While doing a FRESH install of 32-bit cygwin on (64-bit) Windows
Server 2012, setup returns error 1 from base-files-mketc.sh (from
base-files package).

    :

the relevant lines from base-files-mketc.sh are as follow:

    :

>> FILES="hosts protocols services networks"
>> OSNAME="$(/usr/bin/uname -s)"
>> WINETC="$(/usr/bin/cygpath -S -u)/drivers/etc"

>> if [ ! -d "${WINETC}" ]; then
>>  echo "Directory ${WINETC} does not exist; exiting" >&2
>>  echo "If directory name is garbage you need to update your cygwin package" >&2
>>  exit 1
>> fi
>>
>> for mketc in ${FILES}

    :

For 32-bit cygwin and 64-bit Windows, the code assigns
/cygdrive/C/Windows/SysWOW64/drivers/etc to WINETC but it doesn't
exist on my machine. I could have recreated it (and the files
underneath) and then rerun the script - but I doubt if the OS uses
this path. What is recognized and used is
C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc.

Any help is appreciated.
