Thanks very much for adopting this package (since it has over 900 
rdepends, it's kind of important!)

Since glib has an extensive test suite, I humbly suggest you might want 
to run it on occasion, to look out for regressions.

I have somewhere some more extensive notes on the existing failures and 
their causes, beyond the cygwin/newlib shortcomings identified in [1], 
which I can dig out and share with you, if you like.
