Thanks for taking over.  Packaging looks good to me, just the 
setup.hint files...

That should be libgcc1, I guess.

Is that the right version of libopenldap?  The last update to 
openldap only came with the libopenldap2_3_0 package.  So your
libsasl2-ldap package should be linked against that version, right?


Btw., Volker, is there a chance that we can get an updated version
of libopenldap2_3_0 which does not rely on minires?  Minires is part
of Cygwin since 1.7.0, so it would be nice if we could get rid of 
the runtime dependencies to this package.
