It's only just uploaded so it might take another while, depending
on your mirrors.  According to Roger's results in
https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2015-02/msg00511.html and
https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2015-02/msg00543.html, the real problem
hadn't been fixed in the 0.2 test release, so you might give 0.3
another chance.


Thanks,
