I could only download Setup, no Plugins or Languages (the latter isn't a
real surprise).

I wouldn't be surprised if they appeared within twelve hours or so.
(Also noticed the Tucows site is still offering v4.10, from Oct 2007!)

Plugins are ver 4.22 while latest IrfanView is 4.23. Have always seen them
the same versions. Does this make any difference?

Doubt it, and the v4.23 German plugins are out and available here :
http://www.irfanview.de/download.php?file=plugin

I'm not recommending these German language plugins to anybody, but if
you want to be the first on the block ...
