If you are worried about the size of setup, would it help to move /cygwin.bat and /cygwin.ico into base-files? I've an update going out for this soon and it would be little/no trouble... (I could even rename them to have a captial 'C' so they don't clash with /cygdrive ;)
It would probably only save a few KB.
However, I think base-files would be a far more appropriate place for these to live. They are used in setup.exe's shortcut creation, though, so I think we should delay the move until we can transfer the shortcut creation to base-files too.
Max.
