Hmm.  You know I wonder if it's time that we set up a per-package FAQ on
cygwin.com.  It seems like the slightly more than clueless people
sometimes go to the Cygwin FAQ for help on individual packages so maybe
we could have a FAQ for things like emacs, bash, ssh there.

At the very least we could make the package documentation available.
