The subject says it all. If I don't distribute the mingw and w32api

have to go through the effort of coordinating with Earnie every time I
release cygwin so the alternative is to go back to including the mingw
and w32api sources in the cygwin source tarball.
I don't like the thought of duplication here but I guess I've finally
grown weary of the bug reports from people who can't build from the
sources available via tarball.
I'm not going to say much about it other than, I empathize with you.
Perhaps a symlink to the installed versions would do?
I forgot to mention that I changed the top-level configury so that
w32api is no longer absolutely required. So, there is no need for
a symlink anymore (I hope). Or, rather, if there is, I'll fix it.
