Hmm, the fact that it attempts to reinstall packages, coupled with the
fact that it's not renaming postinstall scripts properly, makes me wonder
whether your Cygwin directory tree is writable by the user that performs
the install.  This would also be consistent with the "Cannot open
c:\cygwin\var\log\setup.log for writing" message that others reported.

IIRC, Bruno said that he is in the Administrator group, should'nt this be sufficient?
