If you ever find yourself using Cygwin's setup.exe to install/upgrade packages, and it hangs or starts crashing during that process, follow the instructions at http://rubenlaguna.com/wp/2007/11/05/cygwin-setupexe-crashes-when-upgrading-packages/ to fix:
1. Look in /etc/setup/ for a file corresponding to the package setup.exe is currently crashing on. 2. Remove that file. (The corrupted file in my case was /etc/setup/subversion.lst.gz.) 3. Rerun setup.exe and finish installing/upgrading the package. (Look under 'partial'.) This fixed my Cygwin setup without requiring me to uninstall and re-install Cygwin. Yay!
