"Installation using the setup.exe program": minor note not to mess with
default mounts.
"Adding or updating packages": full instructions now, not just links to ml.
New:
subsection "Problems running setup.exe"
subsubsection "Error message: "Unable to retrieve the list of cygwin mirrors...""
subsubsection "System hangs when unpacking tar archives"
* thread.h: Shorten "current_directory" variables to "cwd_*" throughout.
* path.cc: Ditto.
(normalize_posix_path): Add some extra debugging info.
(chdir): Ditto. Store chdir'ed posix and MS-DOS directory names in "cache"
here rather than trying to derive them later.

* libc/include/sys/reent.h (_rand_next): Changed to
unsigned long long and moved to end of _reent struct in _new union.
(_REENT_INIT): Changed to move _rand_next initialization.
* libc/stdlib/rand.c (rand): Changed to use unsigned long long
linear congruential algorithm that is used by DJGPP.
path.cc (mount_info::init): Eliminate the mount_slash feature.
(mount_slash): Eliminated.
(mount_info::read_mounts): Eliminate looking up existing entries. The
loop for deleting cygpath entries is done only when such entries exist.
(mount_info::from_registry): Eliminate sorting.
(mount_info::add_item): Call add_reg_mount if necessary. Check nmounts
more precisely. Use strcasematch in looking up existing entries.
(mount_info::del_item): Call del_reg_mount if necessary. Use
strcasematch. Use memmove instead of memcpy.
(mount_info::import_v1_registry): Everything is done in this method.
(mount_info::to_registry): Eliminated.
(mount_info::from_v1_registry): Eliminated.
(cygwin_umount): Simply call del_item.

earlier in the loop. Use tmp_buf rather than 'root' to hold root information.
(mount_info::conv_to_win32_path): Add trailing slash to end of mount path when
it translates to a drive. Add defensive code to avoid writing beyond the end
of 'dst'.
