I've just started experimenting with using cygport for cross compiling,
and I've come across two issues:

1. This is just a request: The latest cygport for Fedora appends i686 or
x86_64 to the name of the working directory.  I would find it convenient
if cygport did the same thing on Cygwin, at least if the --32 or --64
option is specified.


Actually, that is experimental code (based on a request from another
cygport user) that was accidentally shipped when I had to reroll the
source tarball for compatibility with F20/UnversionedDocDirs.  Would
people like to see this done always, never, or only when
cross-building?


Always wouldn't hurt, I think.

That's my preference too. If other people object, my second choicewould be to have it happen whenever either --32 or --64 is specified(whether cross-building or not).
