setup does not perform rebase.

It is a post installation phase, performed by a special
package.

$ cygcheck -l _autorebase
/etc/postinstall/0p_000_autorebase.dash
/etc/preremove/_autorebase.sh
/usr/bin/rebase-trigger
/usr/bin/rebaselst
/usr/share/doc/Cygwin/_autorebase.README

If you are not installing on the cygwin tree I see no issue.

Otherwise you can consider to patch the "_autorebase" package
to exclude some files/trees

Marco
