Upgrading to latest version

[Bradey Honsinger <BradeyH at construx dot com>]

What's the recommended upgrade procedure now that XFree is in Cygwin setup?
I'm still downloading the latest Server Test Series build from
xfree86.cygwin.com and copying it over /usr/X11R6/bin/XWin. Will I miss
something by not running setup?
