It would help greatly if you could run one of them (ideally the latest) in gdb and get a backtrace at the faulting location. You could also attach gdb after the fault has happened while the error dialog is on the screen. I tried running addr2line on the above but it seems to return nonsense, so I think we'd need more context of the call stack.

Eric, you were asking for more literal information, I hope this is what you mean: start cygwin setup, follow all options until I get at 'select packages', click on [view] until I get the partial view, only package to update is bash, from current 3.2.17-15 to new 3.2.25-16, click on [volgende] ([next] but in dutch), next is this mostly dutch popup (I work for a dutch company): text in window decoration: setup.exe white upper frame saying: In setup.exe is een fout opgetreden en moet worden afgesloten. Onze excuses voor dit ongemak. on the right hand side there is the icon of setup.exe. then the lower part of the popup says: U was bezig met een bewerking.
