Okay, I'm having a go at this. cygport does look very nice indeed, but 
unfortunately I got stuck anyway.

So I've got the following files all in one directory:

   mintty-0.3.4-1.cygport
   mintty-0.3.4-src.tgz
   setup.hint
   postinstall.sh
   preremove.sh

Building the source and binary packages works, except for the following:

   *** Warning: setup.hint is missing

postinstall.sh and preremove.sh do not get included in the packages 
either. The cygport README tells me that those files should all be 
placed in the CYGWIN-PATCHES directory. So I naively created a that 
directory alongside the .cygport and shuffled the three files in there, 
but to no effect.

I also tried copying them the to ${C} at the start of src_install():

   cp setup.hint postinstall.sh preremove.sh ${C}

Alas, 'cp' couldn't find those files, presumably because it isn't run in 
the same directory as the .cygport file.

So my probably rather stupid question is, where should I be putting 
those files and how?

Andy
