Cygwin emacs -- apparent version config issue with 24.4 to 24.5


I just did a new install of Cygwin and its emacs using the windows 64 intaller, and when I ran emacs from the Cygwin command line I got these errors:

$ emacs
Warning: arch-dependent data dir `/usr/libexec/emacs/24.5/x86_64-unknown-cygwin/': No such file or directory Warning: arch-independent data dir `/usr/share/emacs/24.5/etc/': No such file or directory Warning: Lisp directory `/usr/share/emacs/24.5/lisp': No such file or directory
Error: charsets directory not found:
/usr/share/emacs/24.5/etc/charsets
Emacs will not function correctly without the character map files.
Please check your installation!

After I did

$ mv /usr/share/emacs/24.4/ /usr/share/emacs/24.5/

then emacs worked ok. Seems like perhaps the path didn't get updated somewhere from 24.4 to 24.5?

This is on Windows 7 64 bit, 'uname -a' prints "CYGWIN_NT-6.1 Tregastel 1.7.35(0.287/5/3) 2015-03-04 12:09 x86_64 Cygwin"
