Is it just the mount points that are the issue?  The path?  The desktop
icon?  It is possible to run setup against such an 'installation' to
update it?

On a related note, it is possible to 'prime' setup with additional
packages to select by default.  That is whenever I install cygwin, there
are about 1/2 dozen packages I always manually select, it would be
helpful to have an automated way to doing this.
