odd behavior(bug?) during run of setup

[L A Walsh <cygwin at tlinx dot org>]

When running setup -- a few time have gotten an error saying that it
couldn't create /llvm-objdump.exe.stackdump

(setup-x86-64-2.891)

I looked, and there is no such file in the root dir, so I traced it
with process monitor and first saw it try to
CreateFile C:\llvm-objdump.exe.stackdump (Name not found)
Then
CreateFile C: ACCESS DENIED.

Since that's the only ref to llvm-objdump.exe.stackdump and
the only place with an access denied right after it, I suspect
that's where the error is coming from.

So for some reason it seems to be trying to create a
stackdump, but first it's trying to create the hard drive
(C:).

Weird.

Told it to ignore -- and setup went on an finish w/no further probs.

So maybe there was a stackdump during setup and it
tried to create the dir that is topmost?

Just a guess...
Has happened 2-3 times now in running setup...
