Packaging looks good.  It would be nice if you could provide not only
the setup.hint in plain text, but also as downloadable link to simplify
uploading.

I uploaded this package with a tweak to setup.hint.  The ldesc string
contains quotation marks -> ("the clipboard").  I just removed them.
Please fix that in your local copy of setup.hint.

Please send an announcement to the cygwin-announce mailing list
per the description in http://cygwin.com/setup.html#submitting.


Thanks,
Corinna
