Actually, I didn't mean to question why this Cygwin release of cmake
was later than the normal release of cmake-2.8.4. (These things
happen.) But the separate nature of all the Cygwin releases (not just
this one) got me curious about whether there are any special
circumstances for building cmake on Cygin compared to the other
platforms you cover in your normal release. If there is nothing
special (i.e., bog-standard cmake on Cygwin with no special
configuration or patches), please let me know as well.


It is stock CMake. It uses CPack to create the cygwin package stuff. I have to send a few emails to get it into the setup.exe thing. But, if you just grabbed the source and did a build it would just work. If you ran cpack after, you could even have the same file that I update to cygwin. It is the few emails that slow me down, again not really a good excuse... :) With the other cmake builds, we just push them to cmake.org and we are done...
