Get and install the sources and build them from the top once.  You
need to build them in a different free from the sources.  After that,
setup's sources are in src/winsup/cinstall and the build is in
i686-pc-cygwin/winsup/cinstall.

You probably will want to add a new file called "sanity.c" and call it
at an appropriate time.  There's a generic function in setup to invoke
a MessageBox with printf-style formatting that you'll probably want to
use.
