Are you kidding? Cygwin-Man is the COOLEST! Remember that one time when he
flew around the world so fast that he made time run backwards? That was
AWESOME! And how he can outrun a train? And how bullets just bounce off his
chest, and how he just bends the gun as if it was rubber? And that one time
when he fought Batman and died but then he came back in the future somehow? And
how, when it's really hot and there's kids that are thirsty, he'll crash through
the wall and scream "OH YEAH!" and give the kids flavored sugar water to
drink... oh wait, that's Kool-Aid Man. But still, "Cygwin-Man" would be the
BEST name to have!

Number 2, because the idea of the source distribution is that anybody can
recreate the associated bin exactly.
