Thanks, Achim.  See my RFU message on the -apps list if you want to try 
the packages in advance of them hitting the mirrors.

I changed your .cygport file considerably.  Partly that's just style 
issues, but it also has to do with my build procedure.  You might be 
interested: the attached cygport-new script makes creating a new version 
pretty easy:

1. Put my sqlite3.cygport file and src.patch in a work directory.

2. Run 'cygport-new 3.7.12.1'.  It assumes -1 if you don't give a 
package revision number.

3. If nothing changed incompatibly, you're done; upload and send RFU 
message.  Else, fix the problem and goto 2.

Then for each new release you want to package, you try starting with 
step 2, passing the new version number.  If that fails, you usually have 
to go back to step 1 and edit the .cygport or .patch file.

You're welcome to take these tools and maintainership of the package. 
The only reason I maintain it is that its previous maintainer went MIA 
and it was going to be dropped from the distro; I rescued it purely 
because I knew what sqlite was and had some idea how to build and test 
it.  I don't actually use it on Cygwin like you do[*], so I'm not well 
motivated to keep it up to date.  I mainly react to bug reports like 
yours.  And as you see, not always promptly. :)

[*] I mainly use sqlite3 on other platforms, and then via other software 
that happens to use it.  Firefox, lots of stuff on OS X, Adobe Flex and 
Lightroom...
