Thanks for reporting this problem, and for providing the command line to
reproduce it.
This seems to be a crash which occurs when a package which only has a
test version and no current version is selected via the command line (so
using '--categories All' will hit the few packages which are instances
of this)
I've built setup with a patch which attempts to address this:
https://cygwin.com/setup/setup-2.899.x86_64.exe
https://cygwin.com/setup/setup-2.899.x86.exe
Perhaps you could try that and see if it improves things for you?
