I've just updated the check-mirror software on sourceware which
(supposedly) kept the mirrors list up-to-date.  This is a complete
rewrite so there is a possibility that I got something wrong.  It should
be much better at finding up-to-date mirrors, although there will be a
stabilization period while it figures out about sites which are still
active but contain out-of-date data.

But it has to be better than the old software because...  it uses a
database!

Possible problems would be setup.exe no longer being able to find a mirror
and/or an erroneous http://cygwin.com/mirrors.html.

If you notice a problem please send it here and I'll fix it ASAP.
