Cool.

Btw., per cygwin-pkg-maint we only have 9 orphaned packages.  I don't
believe that even one second, but these 9 packages are already orphaned
for a long time.  Shouldn't we remove them?  At least pdksh should go,
given that we have a modern replacement.  What about the rest?

Here's the list:

  Name		Orphaned  Replacement	Comment
		since

  cramfs        2005
  distcc        2005			Builds with just a few minor tweaks.
  ioperm        2003			Dead upstream
  jgraph	2003			Dead upstream.  Linux jgraph is
  					another project.
  mtd		2005
  nfs-server 	2006
  pdksh		2003	  mksh
  ping		2005			Only works for Admin
  x2x		2004
