Cygwin 1.1.8 Python 2.1a2 Builds OOTB

Python 2.1a2 builds OOTB under Cygwin 1.1.8 or later. One should use
the following when configuring:
configure --with-threads=no --with-libm= --with-suffix=.exe
Note that the "--with-check-import-case" option is no longer needed for
Cygwin. In fact, a different case-sensitive import patch was accepted
into Python CVS. It was really for MacOSX, but it works for Cygwin too.
See the following, if interested:
http://sourceforge.net/patch/?func=detailpatch&patch_id=103495&group_id=5470
Unfortunately, this patch may be removed from Python CVS. I'm currently
in the process of facilitating its (or a modified version's) retention.
Any support from the Cygwin community would be appreciated. The right
place to post is python-dev@python.org but it is a by-approval only list.
So the only avenues are at the above URL or python-list@python.org.
Thanks,
Jason
