[1.7] cygwin inet_ntop prints IPv6 addresses in upper-case.

This is fairly superficial, but I noticed that cygwin 1.7's inet_ntop function prints hex bytes in IPv6 addresses in upper-case. This is inconsistent with what inet_ntop does on every other platform I've tested, and a recent Internet-Draft

cygrunsrv will not start services most of the time

One of the first things I do on a new computer is install cygwin and openssh to get sshd access to it. (setting it up with "ssh-host-config -y"). Unfortunately, I seem to have a problem with cygrunsrv (version 1.34-1). Most of the time (say, 7 out of 10 times), it will not start the service. W

Problem with git on Cygiwn 1.7
