I'm fine with that. I made this package, because a cygwin user asked
me. For me it's a small effort to maintain a cygwin package for this.
I am committed to solve problems. If the cygwin community doesn't want
to switch, that's fine too.
An alternative would be to modify cygutils+dos2unix packages such that
the user can select the flavor of dos2unix/unix2dos commands with
/usr/sbin/alternatives. If cygutils is the default if installed this
should not break anything.
