Changes =======

1) xc/programs/Xserver/os/access.c - Prevent 0.0.0.0 addresses from
being sent to the other end of the wire when using Xdmcp.  Suggested
in the \devel at xfree86 dot org\ mailing list and discussed by many
people in that and other forums.  Should fix problems when using
unconfigured network interfaces and attempting to use '-query' to
Xdmcp into a remote machine; this was happening to a lot of users with
wireless and wired network cards in laptop computers of which one or
the other was usually configured but not both.

To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on
the http://cygwin.com/ web page.  This downloads setup.exe to your
system.  Once you've downloaded setup.exe, run it and select "XFree86"
and then click on the appropriate field until the above announced
version number appears if it is not displayed already.

If your mirror doesn't yet have the latest version of this package after
24 hours, you can either continue to wait for that site to be updated or
you can try to find another mirror.

I would appreciate if you would use this mailing list rather than
emailing me directly.  This includes ideas and comments about the setup
utility or Cygwin/X in general.

If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin/X mailing
list is the appropriate place.
