Downloading Empty setup.ini File from Mirrors

[Emily Jackson <m5comp at fastmail dot fm>]

When I try to update cygwin I get an empty setup.ini file and the only
packages that appear are the ones I already have installed--they are all
listed under "Miscellaneous". I get this with every mirror I try and on
two different PCs, both running Windows 10. This is from setup.log:

2015/08/16 09:03:29 Starting cygwin install, version 2.871

Thanks,

Emily
