I hope to get 'round to this this weekend.

I think it would be best to do that as concurrently as possible,
including the removal of the mintty postinstall and preremove scripts
for creating and removing the 'mintty' start menu entry. That's to
avoid an intermediate phase where the mintty entry appears in people's
start menus without them asking for it, only for it to disappear again
soon after.

In preparation for that, I've repackaged mintty without those scripts:

http://mintty.googlecode.com/files/mintty-1.0.1-2.tar.bz2
http://mintty.googlecode.com/files/mintty-1.0.1-2-src.tar.bz2

And here's a setup.hint with added Base category:
