RLO> Running setup.exe 2.249.2.3 on Win2K, Service Pack 2.

RLO> New packages are downloaded correctly (in this case, openssh needed an
RLO> update). When setup tries to uninstall the old openssh, it hangs, eventually
RLO> using up all available RAM, until a dialog box appears to warn about 'low on
RLO> system memory'.

Does it crash regardless of the package or just when uninstalling
OpenSSH ? Can you try to just uninstall a package (i.e. not automatic
uninstall as part of upgrading a package) and see if it crashes in
this case ?
