If that is the complete directory structure at those two levels then I don't see how it can't work. I'm doing exactly the same, save for the exact directory names. I'm using the "-mX" switches when invoking setup. If you have an x86 or x86_64 directory under cygwin-2015-10-16 however, then setup would never look any further (you can't nest mirror directories). Setup does essentially this (and finds the following setup files on my system when it gets started in the top-level mirror directory, provided that $arch="x86"): $ find -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -name $arch | \ xargs -I: sh -c 'for f in :/setup.{xz,bz2,ini}; \ do [ -e $f ] && { echo $f ; break; } done' && \ find -mindepth 2 -maxdepth 2 -name $arch | \ xargs -I: sh -c 'for f in :/setup.{xz,bz2,ini}; \ do [ -e $f ] && { echo $f ; break; } done' ./cygport/x86/setup.bz2 ./cygwin/x86/setup.bz2 ./maint/x86/setup.xz ./patch/x86/setup.xz ./perl/x86/setup.ini What's the result you're getting?
