cygwin is built using cygport ...
- install the cygport package (subsequently invoke "man cygport" from bash)
- using cygport to build cygwin requires the cygwin.cygport file in the Cygwin
source tarball (will not use gcc 8.3.0)
- extract the source tarball, then ...
Reminder (zie man cygport)
cygport <options> cygwin.cygport prep create working directory, unpack sources and apply patches
cygport <options> cygwin.cygport compile run all compiliation steps (including configure)
cygport <options> cygwin.cygport install installinto a DESTDIR, and run post-installation steps
cygport <options> cygwin.cygport package create binary and source package
cygport <options> cygwin.cygport finish delete working directory
