I just checked binutils-gdb master:

$ find . -name '*.am' | xargs grep cygnus
./bfd/doc/Makefile.am:AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS = 1.9 cygnus
./bfd/doc/Makefile.am:# cygnus option.
./binutils/doc/Makefile.am:AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS = cygnus
./binutils/doc/Makefile.am:# cygnus option.
./gas/doc/Makefile.am:AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS = 1.8 cygnus
./gas/doc/Makefile.am:# cygnus option.
./gold/Makefile.am:# the cygnus option.
./zlib/Makefile.am:AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS = 1.8 cygnus

However, in gcc master, only the zlib subdir still uses "cygnus",
so this looks like no change in toplevel is required.
