I automatically generate all cygport files for Perl distributions… I
have that one already locally, so it's not much work to add to Cygwin,
but may I ask what do you need it for?

The module works just fine without any of these installed, giving a
warning about the missing compression utilities when it hits them, so
I'd rather not pull in all these requirements.
