upset is working just fine for its intended purpose which is to produce
the setup.ini for the standard cygwin package.  upset is not released as
a product for general use.  That should be fairly obvious since it
is not advertised anywhere and is only available via an obscure cvs
checkout.

So, if you want changes, make them yourself.  It's perl code.  It is
not that difficult.
