No - the boilerplate Cygwin packaging script is quite popular.

I'd add the fact it does compile Java too, as an example, and that it is

From your subject I'm wondering if your talking about syscalls? If you

When you do implement them, you might as well help other programmers in
need of them by submitting them as patches against the current cygwin CVS
