Look at http://www.unc.edu/~jochen/archive/, should give you a
directory listing. Either way works for me (remotely:).

Well, that is what the -1 does:) Then I looked into
http://www.cygwin.com/setup.html
yesterday and found it pretty confusing, but maybe I was just
tired... Looking again, it states
,----

is definitely misleading in that case...
I have put up -3 files in the same directory, the only difference is
that the src-package doesn't have the usr/src/ prefix.
Greetings,
Jochen
