scallywag jobs stuck in "fetching metadata"

[Andrew Schulman via Cygwin-apps]

There are 3 scallywag jobs right now that are stuck in the state "fetching
metadata". For example, #8921. The build of 8921 succeeded. I tried to prompt
scallywag to deploy or cancel it, but it gave me errors about that. So I asked
to rerun it, which resulted in job #8923, also now stuck in fetching metadata.
So you know. Andrew
