An earlier version (1) is available via 'setup.exe'.  This is generally true 
for all Cygwin packages.  I doubt you'll find a version of Cygwin package
from December by downgrading via 'setup.exe' using traditional mirrors 
though.  Doing a downgrade is discouraged as a long-term solution since 
problems not reported and fixed will likely stay unfixed, leaving you stuck
with some aging and obsolete version of Cygwin.  If you feel this is the 
direction you would prefer to go anyway, I suggest you google the list for 
the "Cygwin Time Machine".  Make sure you read carefully the homepage for 
this before using it however.
