I used Setup.exe version 2.870. The install failed when trying to run the postinstall bash scripts. After the install failure bash fails every time with: The procedure entry point __locale_ctype_ptr could not be located in the dynamic link library cygwin1.dll. The install failed because it tried to install cygwin 2.6.0 which is not compatible with winxp. I reran Setup.exe to grab cygwin version 2.5.2-1 but the install still fails with the same cygwin1.dll error. Already tried to grab cygwin version 2.5.0 (which is the last known good cygwin version that ran on my machine) from the time machine, but I keep getting the same cygwin1.dll error. Any ideas how to fix this.
