On Windows 7 Ultimate, 64bit.

For al post-install actions, there are a log entries such as follows:

2010/09/23 11:21:58 running: C:\cygwin175\bin\bash.exe --norc
--noprofile /etc/postinstall/000-cygwin-post-install.sh
2010/09/23 11:22:06 abnormal exit: exit code=-1073741515

2010/09/23 11:22:08 running: C:\cygwin175\bin\bash.exe --norc
--noprofile /etc/postinstall/bash.sh

And a dialog is posted to the UI, reporting a failure:

"The program can't start because cyggcc_s-1.dll is missing from your
computer.  Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."

I tried re-install, but to no avail.

Suggestions?
