Suppose I back up my entire Cygwin directory, format the disk, 
reinstall Windows and restore Cygwin. It doesn't work. Why not? 
Running Setup again then hunt and pecking very specific files from 
the backup to the new installation is quite annoying. What else does 
Setup copy/install and where?

Thanks,
