In particular, he should not install more texlive-collection-* packages than he 
thinks he will need.  Even without fork problems, zp_texlive_finish.dash takes a 
long time to run if all texlive collections are installed.

In addition, he should run 'rebase-trigger full' and stop all Cygwin processes 
(including services) before re-running setup-x86.exe, so that the autorebase 
postinstall script will do a full rebase.
