Setup.hint:
@ base_files
sdesc: "Core common files needed for correct operation of cygwin"
category: Base

The entire package is attached.

The /etc/profile generation is getting removed from setup.exe unless
someone provides a _real good_ reason for it to remain.

Setup.exe should be *data driven*, and in this area is not at the
moment.

This package can be released at any point, it shouldn't cause any
problem with current setup.exe's, and will allow a future release of
setup.exe to do away with the /etc/profile generation crud.
