I don't see any option to download the sources, nor do I see anything
on the web page or in the zip that says that the programs are GPL'd
and that the user has certain rights, nor do I see a copyright notice
for those programs.  I don't see how this can be legit, unless someone
can show me where they provide those things.  The link to sourceware
doesn't help; they must assume the responsibility themselves.

Note that it's not that they're redistributing parts of cygwin.
That's OK, *as long as* they follow the rules, which require that they
do certain things, like preserve copyright notices and provide
sources.
