Corinna just announced updated ash and bash.  Anyone updating them would
have noticed the new cygwin.

It wasn't a test release.  I was waiting for it to show up on a few more
mirrors before I announced it.

My astonishment is that half a dozen people would notice this so quickly.
That leads me to believe that people are updating frequently.  Given that
the cygwin downloads on sources.redhat.com are always quite high, I imagine
that people are downloading directly despite my frequent requests not to do
this.
