attached 2 files.
The first is basically what should be the new cygwin-pkg-maint
that cover all the active package in both 32bit and 64 bit.
All packages are reported as lower case.

The second one is the list of packages reported in the current file
that do not exist as package or source package.
Except very few macro families (xorg, unison) all the rest seems to
me bumped dll's or old removed packages; I already removed some obvious 
typos, but I could have missed others.

Questions:
- Do we want to maintain the macro families in the files ?
- What to do with the other entries :
  leave as OBSOLETE record (at package level) or drop them completely ?

Regards
Marco
