Tried it twice again: full install from scratch but this time from a Local Directory. Now the MD5 check took place, as Igor said it would. Everything passed. Base install works fine. But: clicking on the gizmo to change from "All Default" to "All Install" caused such a long pause* that eventually

I've tried it twice. Both brand new installations after removing all previous traces of Cygwin including registry entries. First time: just install base. Second time: just install base, then run setup again (i.e. as "update" really) and install half a dozen additional extras. Faultless both times.
