Thanks for reporting this problem, and for providing the command line to 
reproduce it.

This seems to be a crash which occurs when a package which only has a 
test version and no current version is selected via the command line (so 
using '--categories All' will hit the few packages which are instances 
of this)

I've built setup with a patch which attempts to address this:

      https://cygwin.com/setup/setup-2.899.x86_64.exe
      https://cygwin.com/setup/setup-2.899.x86.exe

Perhaps you could try that and see if it improves things for you?
