If you are using the tools from the cygwin CD, you may want to update to the
latest net release.

Normally these programs are not needed, unless you have patches to the
configure.in or Makefile.am files. If you need these tools, you can
download the source from ftp.gnu.org or one of its mirrors. IIRC you may
need to install perl for automake to work. A version of perl is available
at cygutils.netpedia.net.

It depends. Sometimes the patch location has moved just a few lines and it
is obvious how to fix it, in other cases it takes a bit more work. You will
have to use your own judgement on this.
