It seems that the problem is caused by this line:

dsttmp=$dstdir/_inst.$$_

in 'texlive-source/build-aux/install-sh'. In Cygwin the things work as 
follows:

gcc foo.c -o foo

will create 'foo.exe', but

gcc foo.c -o foo.

(note the dot) will create 'foo' without '.exe'. So the trick is to use, 
in the above line,

dsttmp=$dstdir/_inst.$$.

or

dsttmp=$dstdir/_inst.$$_.

With the first solution, the build is completed with 301 executables 
installed!

The only error I see in the log is that which can be ignored!
