Sorry, false alarm.  I had the new setup.exe on my machine (downloaded
from the website), but the installer on the server would get the old one
anyway from the HTTP proxy cache... which finally also explained some of
the more mysterious mirror failures I've had happen occasionally.  I've
managed to set the lftp script up so that it bypasses any caching.  It's
incredibly slow now, but at least when it finishes it has the correct
files.

Good idea.
