	I understand that, and I had pretty much assumed that that was the
case.  And this isn't really about Cygnus, because *some* people are spending
*some* time on Cygwin devlopment, no?  Whoever they are, as long as they
spend any time working on Cygwin, they should IMHO take a little more of
whatever time they have and spend it cleaning up loose ends instead of coding
features.  That's all I am saying.
