  "When needed", in this case, would be "When doing a non-standard install
from home-built sources and not using the cygwin packaged version at all".....
so I don't think adding a script to the package would help!  (Of course, if
the package maintainer ever wants to start building with mod_tls enabled
rather than disabled, this would change.)

  Oh, BTW, Moe or Tyler or whatever your name is today ;-), you were asking
where to find the cygwin specific patches.  They're part of the source package
for proftpd, which you can install via setup.exe - just tick the box in the
'sources' column next to proftpd.  In fact, you'd probably get the best
results by doing just that, and then building your mod_tls-enabled version
from the cygwin-specific sources.



    cheers,
