Running `setup.exe`, to update dash from 0.5.6.1-1 to 0.5.6.1-2,
produces:

> Unable to extract /usr/share/doc/dash/ChangeLog -- the file is in use.
> Please stop all Cygwin processes and select "Retry", or select
> "Continue" to go on anyway (you will need to reboot).

No Cygwin window is open, and no process reported by Task Manager
appears relevant, except setup itself.  So I see no Cygwin process to
stop.  Pressing "Continue" leads to hanging while displaying:

> Installing
> dash-0.5.6.1-2
> /usr/share/doc/dash/ChangeLog
