I have just tried downloading the src archives for cygwin-1.3.6-5 on three different mirrors and all 
three said that the file ends unexpectedly when checked with "bzip2 -t -v cygwin-1.3.6-
5.src.tar.bz2"

Is this purely a mirror issue or is it a case of the original being corrupt?


Also the size of the src tar archive is suspiciously small. It is only 1.84MB
 compared to the 4-5MB size of earlier versions.

PS: The mirrors in question are: (but also others have the "small" src archive)
