Is the message that it is no longer in the list of Cygwin mirrors
from "setup.exe"? How does it know/Where does it get it's information?
Re firewall ... unlikely, http/ftp are unfiltered.
It's disturbing that the two "mirrors.kernel.org" servers aren't in
sync. I suspect I'm pulling a bogus image from the alternate kern.org mirror.
I was getting inconsistent results -- thought it might have been the new
setup.exe accessing a different data file. Very confusing. Sigh.
