That's old enough that setup*.exe isn't going to let you downgrade to
it.  It really only supports downgrading to the "previous" version,
which in most cases is the previous version released.  If you want to
install 5.9, you can download the package directly and install it
using Cygwin's tar to unpack it.  Another alternative is to search for
the "Cygwin Time Machine" and use it to install a version of Cygwin
that was current for 5.9.  These procedures are, of course, not
supported by this list so if you run into problems, you'll be on
your own.  But they should allow you to do what you want.
