  This would be very helpful and get a +1 from me; I was already
uncomfortable with shipping a package that had a build dependency not (any
longer) available in the distro, and was wondering whether I was going to have
to patch cygport to let me ship with patched versions of the generated files.
 Thanks you very much!
