Corinna,

Would you be willing to do the same for the "acl" package (from the same 
location)?  It has the same issues that you already dealt with porting 
"attr" (partial overlap with Cygwin itself, the same build system, 
etc.).  libacl together with libattr can be used by coreutils, 
gnome-vfs, libarchive, (g)vim, and kdelibs.
