The following package has been added to the Cygwin distribution:

* last-resort-font	15.100

Unicode Last Resort fallback font

Unicode.org Last Resort font is a Unicode font designed as a
fallback with representative glyphs and labels to show a missing
glyph belongs to a specific:

* Unicode Block with common characteristics
* Private Use Area, for which no (official) agreement exists
* Unassigned Block or code point, reserved for future assignment
* Noncharacter code point.

NOTE 

A High Efficiency alternative with cmap table Format 13 Many-to-One
Range Mappings subtable is included, which may not be supported by some
Adobe and Windows apps, but is only 517KB, 6% of the size of the 8MB cmap
table Format 12 Segmented Coverage subtable alternative.

Both alternatives cmap tables include Windows required Format 4 Segment
Mapping to Delta Values subtable, but that of the High Efficiency
alternative is an empty stub subtable.
