Hmm - seems like *that* aspect of the setup.hint file was broken as well. Either wait a few hours for the new setup.ini to be made and propagate to mirrors, or manually extract cygpcre.dll from the old pcre package, and put it in your bin directory. I don't understand why your shell won't start - unless perhaps you aren't using bash. If so, neither bash nor sh requires cygpcre.dll. Either that, or disabling any profile/rc which invokes a pcre-dependent app should allow you to get running again.
