There, now we don't have a single package on the PPL with something to
review that has not at least resulted in a chastising from a grumpy
programmer that knows very little about packaging :)
Lets get those packages fixed, reviewed, and posted! This is fun.

John,
Have you, or are you going to, addressed the isses listed in the PPL
below for distcc?
Once those minor issues have been addressed, I will try to review the
package for you. I don't want to review it right now only to report the
same problems though.

Jari,
I think you have some generic problems with the cygbuild script. There
are two or three issues in the two reviews I sent that I would like
addressed in the above packages before I will take a look at them.
I will review them for you if you get the generic problems addressed.

Hi,
a headsup which affects a few packages and, of course, the developers
of Cygwin. Last week I have applied a pretty big patch, which turns
Cygserver upside down. It now contains basically the FreeBSD kernel
implementation of System V (or, in X/Open / SUSv3 speak) XSI IPC support.
This means,

Why not make it a setup flag? Make a nasty little pop-up box pop up when you
