Rudiyanto,

Could you please do a clean install using the latest snapshot of setup
that you downloaded (2.348)?  Also, please select the gcc-mingw package as
part of that reinstall.  The reason for this is that the gcc-mingw
postinstall script actually prints something to its stdout, and so we can
determine whether that script did indeed run.  One other helpful thing you
could do is save the attached file as C:\cygwin\etc\postinstall\testpi.sh
before you run setup.

Once setup completes, please post setup.log.full (you can bzip2 it to save
space).  Also please post the output of "ls -la /etc/postinstall".
	Igor
