According to https://cygwin.com/packaging-hint-files.html#override.hint,
it should be "not associated with a specific /version-release/", that's

The override.hint is needed to record relations between different
releases and/or to alter (or override) calm's standard interpretation of
the release specific hint files, even retroactively.
