This is because the repository has renamed the top-level directories so that 32- and 64-bit Cygwin are at the same level. Take a look at my local mirror:

$ find -maxdepth 2

.

./release-legacy

./release-legacy/hdf5

./unsupported

./unsupported/clean_setup.pl

./unsupported/cyglsa64.dll

./unsupported/md5.sum

./x86

./x86/release

./x86/setup.bz2

./x86/setup.bz2.sig

./x86/setup.ini

./x86/setup.ini.sig

./x86_64

./x86_64/release

./x86_64/setup.bz2

./x86_64/setup.bz2.sig

./x86_64/setup.ini

./x86_64/setup.ini.sig

./.message

./md5.sum

./setup.log

./setup.log.full

./setup-x86_64.exe

./setup-x86.exe

There are forks of apt-cyg available on GitHub that support this change, but the official apt-cyg sources haven't been changed yet.

adding /x86/ to the path fixed the issue, here's the link for the patch

https://code.google.com/p/apt-cyg/issues/detail?can=2&start=0&num=100&q=&colspec=ID%20Type%20Status%20Priority%20Milestone%20Owner%20Summary&groupby=&sort=&id=26

we shall update the trunk with this fix

This has been fixed in version 0.58, you just need to reinstall.
