With the recent CVE security announcement regarding setup.exe:

   http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2008-3323

I'm wondering if perhaps it make sense to include the version number of
setup.exe on the main Cygwin web page?  It is currently seems to require
downloading setup.exe and running it to determine the version number.
