Hmmm, I don't know why cygwin doesn't handle --relocate correctly yet.
I'm surprised at just ignoring --relocate and installing into /. Perhaps

Meanwhile, the attached patch fixes the double free (and plugs a  
small memory leak).
Could you try and see whether it also fixes the problem for you?

Thanks for the help
