Fair enough, I wasn't sure if this was required given the change in
the downloading mechanism at SourceForge.

Is there a definitive source for details on the cygport functions?
I've looked in /usr/share/cygport/*, the cygport manpage and
/usr/share/doc/cygport/README for details on the functions but haven't
found much detail. Is the best source for information
/usr/bin/cygport itself?

Much appreciated! cygport is a powerful tool, and I'm still learning the ropes.
As a result of Yaakov's review, I've rebuilt the package using his
.cygport (with a minor tweak of using gcc-4). This package is for 1.7
only:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
mkdir wtf
cd wtf
wget http://emergedesktop.org/cygwin/wtf-0.0.4-7.tar.bz2
wget http://emergedesktop.org/cygwin/wtf-0.0.4-7-src.tar.bz2
wget http://emergedesktop.org/cygwin/setup.hint
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cheers!
