Comment:

 I just realized this whole discussion about variables is a red herring.
 In the spkg-install, we have
 {{{
     if [ "$UNAME" = "CYGWIN" ]; then
         # Fine to make this patch on any system, because it is code that
 is onl$
         cp patches/sing_win.cc src/Singular/
         cp patches/IntegerProgramming-Makefile.in
 src/IntegerProgramming/Makefi$
         cp patches/Minor.h src/Singular/
     fi
 }}}
 which includes our patch.

 Compare the relevant part of the diff:
 {{{
 #!diff
 diff -r 0825382212aa spkg-install
 a        b
 114     114             # Fine to make this patch on any system, because
 it is code that is only compiled on Windows.
 115     115             cp patches/sing_win.cc src/Singular/
 116     116             cp patches/IntegerProgramming-Makefile.in
 src/IntegerProgramming/Makefile.in
         117             cp patches/Minor.h src/Singular/
 117     118         fi
 118     119
 119     120         # parallel build patches
 }}}
 so I see why it was confusing!  But even with the comment (legacy comment,
 not mine), this is still all just included on Cygwin.
