Thanks for reporting this.

A few weeks ago I deployed a change to calm to teach it to remove empty 
directories, but it seems I made it too keen.

I've deployed a fix for that, and re-created the directories required by 
cygport upload/stage.

This shouldn't happen again, but if needed, you can safely recreate 
these directories manually.

We apologize for the inconvenience.
