Yes, it's been on my todo list for some time.  Here are the util-linux 
progs that I believe still need to be added to cygutils:

colcrt  - filter nroff output for CRT previewing
colrm   - remove columns from a file
column  - columnate lists
rev     - reverses the characters on each line of each file
mcookie - generates magic cookies for Xauth

I have the util-linux code for each of this, plus man pages.  I just 
need to munge them up so they build within cygutils...time, time, time...
