Ditto.

Perhaps this should be moved to cygwin-apps (which Brian, as all other
maintainers, will have to subscribe to anyway), but one more point while
we're on the subject of Apache: maybe it's time to revisit the apache
postinstall procedure (both the rebase issue and the /var/www one).
FWIW, one idea on the latter is splitting out the documents into a
separate package (apache-docs?), installing over the manual, and using
postinstall to set up the index.html.* files if they aren't present.
This way, "cygcheck -c" won't be confused by the apache packages anymore.
I can elaborate if there's interest.
