A new version of Setup (2.911) has been uploaded to:
https://cygwin.com/setup-x86_64.exe (64 bit version)
https://cygwin.com/setup-x86.exe (32 bit version)
for me the new setup executables do not work, same for both:

That's disappointing.
Perhaps you can try the following (unfortunately complex) procedure to
help me investigate the problem:
1. Using an old setup from https://cygwin.com/setup/, install the gdb
and upx packages.
2. Fetch setup 2.911, and the corresponding symbols. Make sure setup
is executable.
$ wget https://cygwin.com/setup/setup-2.911.x86_64.exe
$ chmod +x setup-2.911.x86_64.exe
$ wget https://cygwin.com/setup/setup-2.911.x86_64.dbg
3. Decompress the setup executable using 'upx -d'.
$ upx -d setup-2.911.x86_64.exe
4. Run setup under gdb. Avoid elevation so setup stays under the
control of gdb. Load the symbol file into gdb.
$ gdb --args ./setup-2.911.x86_64.exe -B
[...]
(gdb) symbol-file setup-2.911.x86_64.dbg
Reading symbols from setup-2.911.x86_64.dbg...
(gdb) r
5. When gdb reports an error, capture a backtrace.
(gdb) bt full
I get the following:
(gdb) r

That's for a unprivileged user.
My unpriveleged user has symlink creation right and the SYSTEM CYGWIN
environment variable is set to winsymlink:native.
