A note on cygwin "versions"...

"They" refuse to admit that there is such a thing
because all the packages are independent and have
their own version ids. However they are all based
upon the cygwin.dll -- which DOES have a version.

You can check this with:
     cygcheck -s
And look for:
     Cygwin DLL version info:
         DLL version: 1.5.12
