Pine and a buffer overflow problem
At http://www.washington.edu/pine/ is suggested to install 4.64 to fix this http://www.idefense.com/application/poi/display?id=313type=vulnerabilities problem. But in Cygwin, Pine is still 4.58 and it has still a maintainer!. Cheers, Angelo.

Re: [BUG] Git v1.5.0.3: fatal: Unable to write new index file
No need to cc me; I read the list. According to Stefano Spinucci on 3/17/2007 7:24 AM: Then, I hope the cygwin Git binary 'll be compiled with NO_MMAP; otherwise, needing to work on a FAT32 fs, I'll have to recompile Git manually. http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-announce/2007-03/msg5.html However, it means that this version does assume that you are not using FAT or FAT32 to hold your repositories, since they do not store file permissions very accurately. I highly recommend that you upgrade to NTFS. FAT32 is not secure. If you insist on using FAT, then you are correct - you must recompile git yourself. Thsi is not an option. Many people use FAT32 due to better interoprability dusing multi-boot environments. Please distribute git wit FAT32 support enabled. Windows workstations are *one* user workstations, so the point of being secure is less important than interoperability.
