astyle

The version of astyle provided by Cygwin is quite old. Version 2.06 is from
2016.

Would it be reasonable to update to the latest version?

https://astyle.sourceforge.net/notes.html

That old 2.06 accepts some options that were long ago deprecated. The newer
versions have removed those options (apparently replaced with different
spellings). This causes some grief trying to share .astylerc config files
with people who might have different versions of astyle installed.

I'd be happy to help. But I don't know anything about developing packages
for Cygwin, so I'd need some guidance.

Michael
