Setup Parse Errors

[Mahir Morshed <mahir256 at live dot com>]

Hello,
 
I'm trying to download Cygwin Ports packages to my computer using the method mandated on Sourceware, but when I get past the download site list (e.g. while parsing setup.ini), I get twenty-two errors in a large dialog box that look something like this:
 
ftp://sourceware.org/pub/cygwinports/setup.bz2 line 25983: syntax error, unexpected STRING, expected NL
ftp://sourceware.org/pub/cygwinports/setup.bz2 line 25983: unrecognized line 25983 (do you have the latest setup?)

ftp://sourceware.org/pub/cygwinports/setup.bz2 line 25984: unrecognized line 25984 (do you have the latest setup?)
 
This has been duplicated with some of Sourceware's other mirrors.
When I try to go to a typical Cygwin mirror (not Cygwin Ports), the setup.ini is parsed correctly.
Is there anything I can do to make the setup.ini be parsed correctly, or is it a glitch in the setup.exe file?
 
Thanks, -Mahir Morshed
