Combining -D and -L on setup command line

I had the opportunity to test the latest cygwin-1.7 today after
my USB stick got trashed.

Using setup 2.625 the combination of -D -L on the command line
does not result in the expected "download and install" operation.

I have to run setup twice, once with -D to download to pull the
files into a local directory, and then with -L to do the actual
install from the local directory.

I see that the patch to support both is in CVS as version
2.18.6.1 but not in 2.19 (HEAD)

Is this an oversight or do I just need to wait until the streams
get merged?

Cheers, Ralph
