Yes, I would want _all_ non-core Perl distributions as separate cygwin
packages. That's the only sane way to deal with these when the need for
local patches arises. This is admittedly rare, but it does happen.

May I suggest to name all bundle packages perl_* (underscore) so they
differ from the distribution packages? And again the bundles should
just list the dependencies, while the actual distributions are in their
own packages.

Achim.
