All cygwin packages come with self-contained sources installable through
setup.exe. Although they depend on the headers and libs from the DLL there
are no patches there for them; the patches (if any) are distributed along with
the upstream source tarball in the related source package.
Also, next time you aren't sure what package contains a given exe:

Also, we're veering dangerously on topic here.... quickly, someone do or say
