Entirely up to you - you do the build :-). I'm just pointing out that
the line wrt to Cygwin is generally "use the standard package", so if we
stick to that, as long as you build it OK, most people needn't worry
'bout hacking stdio.h.

I was meekly trying to voice my concern about who supplies the "support"
mentioned above.

If my patch gets accepted, then the stdio.h hack won't be necessary for
anyone (after the next Cygwin release).
