Current libbsd 0.11.7-3 breaks setproctitle() because it provides its own generic implementation which does not work on Cygwin. It also prevents that the cygwin1.dll implementations of some other functions (arc4random(), strlcat/cpy(), wcslcat/cpy(), ...) are used.

The runtime from libbsd0 0.12.2-5 still exports these symbols for backward compatibility but the import library from libbsd-devel does not longer offer these.

Could libbsd 0.12.2-5 please be promoted to current?
