Need help locating cyg_install.exe

Hello,
I recently installed Cygnus CDK 19.1 and downloaded some extra off of ftp
sites.
I installed vim 5.0, less, termcap, ncurses. They all work great.
Now the question is:
I have a question regarding an "install" script I found, attached here for
your reference. Where is cyg_install.exe ?
This is the .exe file reference by the replacement script, near the bottom
of the attached file.
I'd appreciate any pointer.
Best Regards,
Enoch Wu
