commit e75d09f1cd2e1f3742bae648d48220901e2fb7b4

    Refuse to run on Windows XP and earlier
    
    Refuse to run on Windows versions less than 6.0 (XP or previous), as they
    are no longer supported by Cygwin.
    
    Future work: The version checked against should be read from setup.ini,
    rather than hard-coded here, so that this version of setup cannot be used to
    download a future version of Cygwin which isn't compatible with the Windows
    version it's running on...
