I have asked a similar question last December and no reply to that one 
either. <http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2006-12/msg00675.html>

It seems that Darryl didn't have the time anymore to solve this, or he 
was too much worried after the whole legal discussion that followed his 
post that he decided not to do it at all. Which would be a pity, because 
I have no clue how to fix it myself.

Frank
