Thanks to Jon Turney for the reply and suggestions to assist in troubleshooting this Cygwin installer.

When I run the previous version of the Cygwin setup (2.932), the scaling problem does NOT occur.  So, this scaling problem is brand new with version 2.933.

I also tried downloading the new patched installer (2.933-3-g2907) at the link Jon provided.  This version also does NOT exhibit the scaling problem.  So, whatever you changed in that patched version indeed does solve the problem for me.

Thank you.

It's not quite clear if you're saying that previous versions of the
installer didn't have this problem, or you haven't used them?

(Old installer version are available at https://cygwin.com/setup/)

Anyhow, this is all a bit disappointing as we made some changes in 2.933
in an attempt to improve the behavior in 'DPI change' situations like this.

But now I look again at those changes again... maybe they're not quite
right. I've made an adjustment in an attempt at fixing this.

Perhaps you can try [1] and see if it behaves any better?

If you notice any bugs that ideally *shouldn't* be fixed, please point
those out as well :P.
