Ok, so let's not create new packages for the next couple of days.  I
will just update the Cygwin package itself if serious bugs crop up, that
should be ok, right?

Just for clarity, do you mean release-2 parallel to release, or cygwin-2
parallel to the parent cygwin dir?  I'd expect the latter might actually
break a lot of mirrors which explicitely mirror the cygwin directory
only.  release-2 seems less error prone on the mirror side.
