> And it is ok and accepted that such a patch breaks the functionality?

Apparently that depends on the maintainer.

One maintainer does his best not to break existing installations:
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2013-12/msg00059.html

And another introduces a new version
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2013-05/msg00163.html that breaks existing
installations (see last line of announcement: removed alternatives)
leaving people wonder why their vim doesn't work as expected (search
the archives back in May and June).

So cgf was right: http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#WJM

Regards,
Frank
