There is a typo here (on my part) which seems to have generated some 
confusion... :(

The command I have run to confirm the corrupted tar file was

$ tar -tf cygwin32-1.7.27-1.tar.xz

(the same reported by Marco here: 
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2014-01/msg00244.html), but when I wrote the 
email and then repeated it for the copy/paste, I typed the "r" instead 
of "t" and this caused the confusion..

I did not want to append any file...

Anyway, the most important thing is that now Yaakov has fixed the 
corrupted tar-ball (http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2014-01/msg00249.html)


Ciao,
   Angelo.
