Running Cygwin setup 2.912 with --symlink-type native (or

Thanks for reporting this.
Yes, it seems this is messed up where the target of the symlink is an
absolute path.
I've uploaded setup 2.913 with an attempted fix.
https://cygwin.com/setup/setup-2.913.x86_64.exe
https://cygwin.com/setup/setup-2.913.x86.exe
Please try that (you'll have to reinstall the effected packages), and
see if it improves things for you?
