The problem is not fixed, but I think it's happening less often.  (I 
can't be sure, since the problem is sporadic.)  Here's what I did:

1. I installed the snapshot and updated my mirror of the bzr repository. 
  It failed once but then worked the second time.

2. I tried (once) to create a new mirror from scratch, and it failed.

3. I rebuilt cygwin1.dll with your latest changes (2011-02-21 17:01:06) 
and tried again to create a new mirror from scratch.  Again it failed 
once but worked the second time.  This is remarkable, because a huge 
amount of data got transferred.  So I'm inclined to think there's been 
an improvement.  But I might have just gotten lucky.
