According to Wikipedia:

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UnxUtils

Wikipedia says "The collection was last updated on April 15, 2003"
which is quite long ago.  It appears to be unmaintained.  You may be
better off using one of the other ports of the GNU system such as
Cygwin which is updated more regularly.
