(This was sent to the cygwin-patches list rather than the cygwin list.)
The ChangeLog entry is attached. Is there a better way to do this sort of
thing? For example, should I send a ChangeLog entry along with proposed
patches? Should I send proposed patches to cygwin-patches instead?
BTW, the copyright assignment form is almost ready -- I'm waiting to get the
employer part back. Perhaps I'll send the first two parts now and the third
part when I get it.
