Anyone that is currently reporting problems or wondering why they do not 
have the latest features being described on this mailing list:

There are several Cygwin mirrors that have not been updated in months. 
These mirrors are still in the list of mirrors sent to Cygwin's 
setup.exe.  Please do not point Cygwin's setup.exe at any of these 
mirrors, or you will probably get older versions of software installed 
(even if you also point to another up-to-date mirror).

The list is as follows:

I audited every mirror in mirrors.html.  The results below are from
hosts that were reachable.  Hosts that were unreachable are not
reported.  Anything not in the list below was either unreachable or had
a date stamp on setup.ini of at least 2004/01/11.
