setup triubles


Hi,

Below is a patch which solves some of problems I met while trying
to install the new net release.

Problems were caused by Novel Border Manager which was used as ftp proxy. 
I found that it generates  quite hmm... uncommon ftp listing and the setup 
program was a bit confused with it.
The ftp listing contains <BASE> element defining base url and <A> elements
with relative path names in their href attributes. In addition each line
in the listing begins with '\0'.

Finally, after I got through it my drive got cluttered with all these miserable
ftp listings, so I added a couple of unlink calls.  

Then all went smooth until I found that the small white-blue icon I used to see 
since B20 times got lost and cygwin console window is now uglified with MSDOS 
icon. What one can expect to see though such a window? I believe that it may
result in numerous hard to find bugs, performance degradation and overall 
unstability.

One more thing - uninstall script hasn't deleted 
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/2.95.2libstdc++.a which is a symlik to
../../../libstdc++.a.2.10.0
