Grab the bitkeeper installer source, and fix the install routine.

Oh, they don't give you the source? (Well, google won't find it for me).

Go hassle bitkeeper.

FWIW, the doco on their web site *suggests* that they include cygwin's
setup.exe, and if they do, then they MUST give you the full source to
that executable, as it is GPL'd.
