RE: Setup.exe 2.218.2.9 crashes with stack fault on Win98SE


Problem solved. Apparently another piece of software on my machine installed
an older version of Cygwin deep in the other program's install directory. I
assume Setup.exe was finding and trying to use an old version of
cygwin1.dll. Once I found and uninstalled the old version, setup worked like
a charm.

Does Setup.exe bootstrap off cygwin1.dll? If so, could it check the version?

I probably should have mentioned in the first post... I fail the same with
all of the snapshot versions posted.
