Hmm, this doesn't help.  Similar fix applied to install.cc also
doesn't help.  After removing c:/cygwin and doing a fresh install, you
get the error message:

    cannot open log file C:/cygwin/var/log/setup.log.full for writing.

(but that's not as bad as that tetex/texmf will fail until /var gets
created :-).

Also, in the select packages dialog, when expanding a category,
packages are often not visible; just empty spaces.  It seems to be
some kind of redraw problem; it works somewhat for categories near the
top of the list, but not for categories below the center; ie, this is
what I see after expanding some categories:

+ All () Default
  + Base () Default
  + Devel () Default
  + Doc () Default
  + Editors () Default
              0-2-1     () Keep  [] ed: The GNU versio|-> rest of line blank
  + Graphics () Default
  + Interpreters () Default


  + Libs () Default
  + Net () Default
  + Publishing () Default

  + Shells () Default

  
  + Text () Default
