I didn't know that it was 12 hours (but figured that it had to be
something) and can't provide any examples at the moment (I haven't
reinstalled since finally getting it right), but I'll keep an eye
out for them and take a look at how they compare.  You may recall my
endless agony with cygintl1; I *believe* I downloaded from uiarchive,
but it may be that I trashed everything including the directory and then
simply had that site in my list for an update after having gotten all of
the pieces together later.
