Most of inetutils has been ported by Sergey Okhapkin.  You can get them
from:

	http://www.lexa.ru/sos

Sergey is a prolific contributor to Cygwin.  He's responsible for a large
number of important contributions to the DLL itself.  He maintains his own
"coolview" distribution of the DLL which is also on the web page.
