Hello, perhaps, if copying the files by hand is too heavy as another user said, it is possible to use version 0.9.9.5, as I had written here:
https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin/2020-August/245981.html it is not the latest version, but it is surely much newer than 0.9.7: you just need to change version number and remove the patch now useless from glm.cygport. Sincerely.
