CYGWIN CHANGES
This is a cygwin bug fix release of 3.4.2-1
with a workaround for the crash when executing:

-------------------------
  graphics_toolkit ("fltk")
  x=1:10;
  plot(x,x)
  print("fltk.png","-dpng")
-------------------------

Tested on XP-SP3 32bit, Windows 7 64bit, and recent cygwin snapshots.

DESCRIPTION
The GNU Octave language for numerical computations is a (mostly Matlab (R)
compatible) high-level language, primarily intended for numerical
computations.  It provides a convenient command-line interface for solving
linear and nonlinear problems numerically.

HOMEPAGE
http://www.gnu.org/software/octave/

KNOWN BUGS
On cygwin-1.7.9 the plot with gnuplot toolkit is working very bad.
This is due to a fork bug and is not an octave bug.
Any cygwin snapshots after 2011-06-01 solve the issues,
so the next cygwin-1.7.10 will definetely  remove the bug.
