When I remember (which is about 25% of the time), I try to do all of my
downloads in /sourceware/ftp/anonftp/pub/cygwin/stage and then move
things over from there, to minimize the time when upset might be upset.
I haven't tried it but you might be able to do something like
cd /sourceware/ftp/anonftp/pub/cygwin/stage; mkdir readline
# copy stuff into readline hierarchy
cp --link -a readline ../release; rm -r readline
to deal with complicated hierarchies.
