I agree with Sebastian.

One point to think of is that newlib headers are automatically part of a
Cygwin installation if they are not overrode by a Cygwin-specific header
of the same name and path.  Just removing that file has the potential
to break some Cygwin package relying on the existence of that file.

So just removing files in the generic header path should always be
discussed first.


Thanks,
Corinna
