Updated: Cygwin 2.2.0-1

[Corinna Vinschen]

Hi Cygwin friends and users,


I released another version of Cygwin.  The version number is 2.2.0-1.


What's new:
-----------

- New APIs: getcontext, setcontext, makecontext, swapcontext.

- New functions: sigsetjmp, siglongjmp.
  These were only available as macros up to now, but POSIX requires that
  siglongjmp has to be available as function.


What changed:
-------------

- When started from a non-Cygwin process, check if $HOME starts with a
  slash (absolute POSIX path).  Otherwise ignore it.
