OK, step 2 here is problematic. First, if you distribute cygwin1.dll, you must
also distribute the source (gpl requirement). If the binary does not
correspond to the source, then you haven't met the requirement. A binary diff
is probably not acceptable either. I think it would be necessary to patch the
source, and build the binary from that.
