would require sighted assistance for me if it weren't for Cyg-Get and

Ok, you forgot to highlight that, and it was not my first thought.
This is clearly a weakness of the current setup implementation.

As basic install

   setup-x86.exe -P proftpd -q

should install the package you are looking for, without the need
of additional software.
It works for me, just tested.

I suggest to contact the chocolatey/cyg-get team
to check any problem on their side
