Old CYGWIN NEWS:
================
* routine update
* removed --with-offixe from configure as it needs --with-dragndrop which
doesn't work on cygwin right now
* this version uses again the original package-get.el as my local patch
doesn't cleanly apply because of a major update to the package lisp stuff
* explicitely include --with-dialogs=motif when configuring
