Re: updated procps package

I think this is a really useful package. A couple of things:

-In your README, you leave out the part about applying the 
 patch in CYGWIN-PATCHES/. 'patch -p1 <' does it for me. 

-You still have a /usr/bin/kill.exe (which conflicts with cygwin's).
 It appears to be a copy of your skill.exe. Also the kill.1 and ps.1
 manpages conflict with cygwin-doc. 
 Just a suggestion, since you already patch the Makefile to get
 kill->kill.exe and ps->ps.exe, why not patch the Makefile to create
 kill->prockill.exe, etc.? That way no mixups.
