-11: Problem at 1st start when "cygwin.bat" is run by Nullsoft-Installer

Adding the following lines to /etc/profile to delet the variables didn't
help anything:

TMP=
TEMP=
TMPDIR=

The same error occured a the same place, so it's neither a solution nor
even a workaround for our problem.

The usage of $TEMP/$TMP/$TMPDIR has nothing to do with Cygwin.  The
Cygwin DLL itself has no need for a tmp dir.  The reason it's used is
that bash honors (at least) $TMPDIR.  One workaround would be to delete
these environment variables before bash is called.  But, of course, this
doesn't help to track down the actual cause of the problem.
