Check out http://www.znark.com/cygwin/. It doesn't include the archive 
files; my web account doesn't have the bandwidth or quota for them. To 
generate the packages, download the *.tgz files from 
cygwin/xfree/binaries/4.2.0

I renamed all the packages to use xfree86 instead of xfree.

I couldn't get upset to work properly. I figured out that it needs a 
list of packages as input. If there is no version: line in setup.hint 
files, then the generated version is incorrect (xfree-base-4.2.0-1) for 
example. If I put it in the setup.hint files, no install: line is 
generated. I had to hand edit the generated setup.ini.
