Thanks for reporting this.

Yes, it seems this is messed up where the target of the symlink is an 
absolute path.

I've uploaded setup 2.913 with an attempted fix.

   https://cygwin.com/setup/setup-2.913.x86_64.exe
   https://cygwin.com/setup/setup-2.913.x86.exe

Please try that (you'll have to reinstall the effected packages), and 
see if it improves things for you?
