    If you need an older version, the Cygwin time machine might help. To use it, I had to invoke setup.exe from the command line, giving it the --no-verify/-X option and it still wouldn't let me downgrade the "cygwin" package itself but at least it is, albeit very slowly, allowing me to install the version I wanted to test as a parallel installation.

    Some cygwin mirrors keep old package files, for example, http://mirror.isoc.org.il/pub/cygwin/ You can use Sonatype nexus to mirror an existing cygwin repository, but provide your own setup.ini .nexus cygwin mirror config

    Copy the already downloaded repo content to c:\progs\nexus\sonatype-work\nexus\storage\mirror.isoc.org.il-pub-cygwin\
    Put your own setup.ini and setup.bz2 there.
    Start setup.exe with --no-verify
    Paste

    http://localhost:8081/nexus/content/repositories/mirror.isoc.org.il-pub-cygwin/
    

    into the mirror selection box and click "Add"

    If you are using the cygwin package installer to install this package, usually if you select to view the full info and scroll to the package you need you will see some info about the version.

    Now if you click on the version number you will see that it changes from the oldest in the repository to the current. If your repository has the version you need then just finish the wizard.
