Development version of perl builds fine with this snapshot, and passes
all tests (2 tests had failed with 1.5.18).  It detects and uses
readdir_r (which wasn't exported in 1.5.18).

I'm happy to see some new include files over what was in 1.5.18,
and the removal of some redundant info files:

$ perl snapfiles.pl cygwin-inst-20050929.tar.bz2
