Forgive me if this is a FAQ (I tried searching), but is there a standard 
timeframe in between when a package update is announced on the list and 
when it's actually available on the mirrors?

I tried every https mirror, but none of them have the new versions. I've 
been having trouble with the X server and xwin-xdg-menu failing to start 
up properly (in a semi-non-repeatable way), so I was hoping to get this 
update now.

I tried upgrading setup-x86_64.exe to 2.915, in case some fix was needed 
to get the new packages to show up, but like the last several versions 
of the setup programs (2.909 is the last one I remember working), it 
doesn't work on my Windows 8.1 system (with all available MS updates).  
Running the installer from Explorer results in nothing happening 
whatsoever.

Running setup from bash as Administrator results in:

    Starting cygwin install, version 2.915
    User has backup/restore rights
    User has symlink creation right
    *** --symlink-type lnk is not implemented

I've had my CYGWIN environment variable set to "wincmdln 
winsymlinks:lnk" for ages, and it's always worked before.  I /highly/ 
prefer the lnk implementation of symlinks, since it allows me to make 
them from non-Admin shells, etc.
