Never had to chmod -x setup in my download, check, launch script until now - it used to just check it was -x and complain if not, which it did this time, pre-fix! Did not require that on my last (wget -N) download of the current setup release, but now does. Consistent across directories, Cygwin, and Windows DACLs. Could be Windows, Cygwin, or wget change - not worried about cause. -- Take care.
