Unfortunately I didn't express myself clearly in my original message.

The numeric DLL rate shown by the Cygwin setup program is actually in units of 
K Bytes/sec and thus either kB/s or KB/s should be used as the text following
the numeric rate.

Looking at the code I also note that maybe the 2nd sprintf should be changed to
use %03.1f to be consistent with the 1st sprintf ...

static void
progress (int bytes)
{
  if (is_local_install)
    return;
  static char buf[100];
  double kbps;

<snip>

  kbps = ((double)bytes) / (double)(tics - start_tics);
  if (max_bytes > 0)
    {
      int perc = (int)(100.0 * ((double)bytes) / (double)max_bytes);
      Progress.SetBar1(bytes, max_bytes);
      sprintf (buf, "%d %%  (%dk/%dk)  %03.1f kb/s",
	       perc, bytes / 1000, max_bytes / 1000, kbps);
      if (total_download_bytes > 0)
     	  Progress.SetBar2(total_download_bytes_sofar + bytes,
			   total_download_bytes);
    }
  else
    sprintf (buf, "%d  %2.1f kb/s", bytes, kbps);

  Progress.SetText3(buf);
}
