Seeing the exact same thing here.  Skipping the retry to allow the
rest of the installation to go through, then choosing 'Reinstall' for
vim-minimal, worked.

FWIW, the failed download popup always happened when the main
setup.exe said it was trying to download autorebase.

The setup log only contains:

2014/02/24 11:36:58 Starting cygwin install, version 2.831
2014/02/24 11:36:58 User has NO backup/restore rights
2014/02/24 11:36:58 Attempting to elevate to Administrator
2014/02/24 11:36:58 Writing messages to log files without exiting

(Dunno what the kvetching about permissions is, as I'm the only user
on this system, most definitely with all the privileges.  It's Windows 7
x64, but running a 32-bit Cygwin.)
