When the patch is officially accepted into CVS, a new setup snapshot
should (theoretically) be generated, at which point you'll find it at
<http://cygwin.com/setup-snapshots/>.  We've been lax in doing this for
the last few significant functionality improvements (Brian, can we please
get a setup snapshot?).  Until then, feel free to do what I've been doing:
compile setup yourself, and provide a snapshot on the web.
HTH,

If there's any real truth it's that the entire multidimensional infinity
of the Universe is almost certainly being run by a bunch of maniacs. /DA
