Busybox isn’t going to be usable in its normal sense without cygwin1.dll to map symlinks to argv[0] so that Busybox can tell how it was called, and thus which function to provide. But that’s a side issue, because I don’t see why you think you need Busybox in the first place, unless it is to be able to run postinst scripts. Can’t you just say that that setup-*.tar.xz package never has a postinst script, so that all you need to do is un-tar it? In that sense, setup.exe is already bootstrapped: it has everything within itself to be able to replace itself.
