Well, it's not entirely a stop-gap measure.  The original idea is that
its functionality would become integrated into 'setup.exe' so that it 
would hopefully become (more) transparent.  But it will still be there.

 From your later message, I can see you figured this out for yourself.
You may have found that not being able to rebase cygiconv-2.dll wasn't
a problem for you anyway.  Or maybe you would have.  In any case, the 
message does draw some attention, correctly or not.

Glad you got your solution. :-)
