Generates a function to parse and validate command line options. The missing x86 package has now been added to the Cygwin distribution.
The following package has been added to the Cygwin distribution: * gengetopt 2.23 Reads an interface description file, and writes a file containing a command-line parser function. Generates a C function that calls the getopt_long function to parse command line options, to validate them, fill a struct, or output a usage message. Can also generate functions to save command line options into an rc file, and to read command line options from an rc file. Handles long options starting with '--' and short options starting with '-' followed by one character, without parameters and with 11 types of parameters (including flag, int, double, string, and function call)."

When building from tarball, everything works like it did before. * To mimic behaviour of coreutils, version string is no longer part of --help, and usage is printed before purpose in --help * Use singular (`[OPTION]...`, `[FILE]...`) instead of plural (`[OPTIONS]...`, `[FILES]...`) * Fix spelling of `--unnamed`. `--unamed` still provided for backwards compatibility. * Drop IRIX compatibility
