BTW, I forgot to mention that this is not how you find out the version of Cygwin you have.

If you are using setup, but having problems with installation, please provide the exact steps you use to reproduce the problems, any error messages you get, and other information requested in the Cygwin problem reporting guidelines at <http://cygwin.com/problems.html>.
